Weren't WQ's supposed to help level your follower?
The WQ's don't, no. You get three special quests to level up your bodyguard's rank. They appear as blue exclamation marks on your map.

What to do
Description
We have much to do, {name}. However, we are all weary and require rest. Decisions made while fatigued are almost always the wrong ones to make. The Ankoan have offered their home to us, yet they are barely holding on themselves. We should do what we can to support them while we think about our next move. See what you can do to aid their hunting parties, it may be the only way we survive in this place.
