Without spoiling anything, I defeated the enemies and found the missing person (and took the item) prior to meeting the character who assigns you this quest.
Now the quest is my journal, but I can't seem to complete or advance it, even if I visit this person and have the item in my inventory or equipped. I've also waited numerous days and returned to the quest location to see if they enemies have re-spawned, but they have not. I even tried to return the item to the body, but this is also not possible.
Is this a glitch or am I missing something? Thanks for any advice.
