How to pick up on the Fighters Guild quests after abandoning one?

I've run into the weird problem, where I had to abandon the Prismatic Core quest, and since that time I can't get any fighters guild quests done anymore.

The other day I was at the Earth Forge trying to fight queen whatshername, and eventually gave up after having been beat lots of times. Being a level 28 character against a level 23 queen is something for another thread, though. ;)

OK, so I gave up, logged off, waited 25 minutes and logged back in to find I am at a wayshrine in the world. All fine and good. Played a lot of other stuff, leveled up, and am now at level 32. So I thought, let's try again... but for that you cannot. The portal into the Prismatic Core quest is made at the end of the Dangerous Past quest. We already went through a portal into that quest, and that portal is nowhere to be seen or had, since Guildmaster Sees-all-colors isn't in the same province as I am in, or something like that.

So, for me, I am in the Aldmery Dominion, so the initial portal into the Dangerous Past quest should be in the Fighters Guild room in Elden Root. It isn't. I've been there, waited there for half an hour, nothing happens.

The Dangerous Past quests sits in my Journal as being done. So I cannot revisit it. Or abandon it. Or replay it. Or anything. I can link it in chat, and that's it.
And as such, since the Prismatic Core quests starts from a portal at the end of the Dangerous Past quest, I can't reach that portal as I cannot redo the Dangerous Past quest.

And so, after I'd been to the Fighters Guild HQs in the various cities, messenger Berta Moorsmith approached me when I was close to the FG in Skywatch. Only from there did she give me the message that Sees-all-colors was waiting for me in Marbruk's FG HQ. Shouldn't the messenger just be trying to approach me when I am near or in any FG HQ? And I see that restarts the Dangerous Past quest. Phew.

Jord.

As I burn down and murder, I know that God forgives.
'Spite all the things I've done my soul yet forever lives.
And all those caught in the shadow of my wings have cause to fear.
I swear on all I've done, no evil shall linger here.

    Yes, thanks I am abandoning and not looking back at this waste of time. Mine got bugged when it said to see sees-all-time and he was not where the indicator said. It had me run way out into Reaper's March!

    I am having problem with this quest as well. I defeat all the baddies after finishing the crafting portion but Merric doesn't follow me to Aelif (name?) and I can't talk to either. The first time I put in a bug report then went and did a couple other things. Came back and noticed things seems to have reset so ran through it again. I was stuck in the exact same spot the second time around. I am really impressed that this is the first major quest bug I have found, but at the same time it boggles my mind that the bug is on what is a pretty major quest line.

    Hmm quite odd. I did this quest today with no issues in the AD. The quest pointed to Elder Root but I found it in Marbruk's FG HQ in Greenshade. I killed the enemies, chatted with Merric and we proceeded to the wayshrine/portal area where I first entered this quest in the Earth Forge. Aelif was there but the quest now ends differently than it use to. Merric says Aelif should lead the way and as soon as the interaction with Merric ends you get a loading screen and are taken back to the Fighter's Guild without speaking to Aelif. You then talk to Sees-All-Colors.
