(Spoilers)
This quest is an escort one, where the chap you discover is too scared of the surrounding monsters (even though he is an expert on the undead apparently) to make his own way back to town.
Thing is, when you agree to escort him he takes off running back to Cyseal, and by running I mean sprinting away in front of you. My characters were barely able to keep up with him as he ran away and couldn't stop him from initiating encounters. I dont even think he was marked on the map either so it was tricky to see where he had run to initially.
Luckily he survived .. however it seem's a bit unexpected that someone so scared would simply run on ahead. Shouldn't escort quests in general revolve around our characters travelling ahead, and having the NPC walk with us (much like a companion would) ?
