House Ravenwatch Inquiry bug (Gwendis missing)

verolo

At the very beginning of the prologue quest for Markarth, you need to talk to Gwendis near the Eastern Evermore wayshrine in Bankgorai. She is, however, nowhere to be found.

I save doing this prologue quest until after I finish (100%) all Daggerfall Covenant zones.
After completing Bankorai (100% to include side quests) and saving Emeric, I tried starting this quest today (12 Nov, 2023) and the same thing happened to me as the op.
I tried starting it both from the crown store and the scroll located in the mages guild in Daggerfall.

I then tried starting it on a lowbie who hasn't done much of anything (to include talking to the hooded figure and nothing in her faction) which yielded positive results (meaning after starting the quest, Gwendis was waiting for me next to the Evermore wayshrine).

Obviously this bug is related to some content being completed. The character I want to do the quest on has done almost everything, Tamriel-wide.

Thank you for reading

The issue seems to have been resolved with the latest patch (v9.2.6)

Thanks for posting Verolo--

Although the toon I wanted to do this quest has yet to set foot in The Reach, Gwendis has in-fact appeared at her appointed place next to the Evermore wayshrine, even without starting the prologue quest. Works for me.

I also want to thank the team at ZoS for fixing this.
Although I disagree with a few decisions that have been made in the game starting with High Isle, I still overall love this game and I've noticed the visual enhancements and effects to the environment and spirits as well.

Thanks for reading, thank you Zos and please, Dear Reader, stay safe out there.

I have not been able to find Gwendis at the Evermore wayshrine nor at her original location before the update. I have completed the DC quest line and the Western Skyrim DLC. I am able to see her at Ravenwatch Castle before I accept the prologue quest but once I do she disappears. I play on PlayStation 4 and on NA server so hopefully this gets resolved on the update on 11/28/2023
