Yes, until a quest choice is made that advances the story. For me that seems normal because that is how most video games I play work. It feels unexpected and cheap if a quest suddenly fails because a random amount of time passed.
What does "random" mean here? Does it mean an amount of time unknown to you? Because that's easily solved by the druids informing you "we think it will take X days to complete the ritual."
