I lost the Lost Sybille at the "Follow Lost Sybille" step, I think because I got into a dungeon during it. When I got out, he wasn't where it said he would be, and I couldn't find him anywhere to follow him again. So I abandoned the quest and Theotar offered it again. It put me at the last step (didn't have to re-do the first 3 steps), and the Lost Sybille appeared again at my location for me to follow. I couldn't find any comments anywhere about this, so I hope this helps someone who has this issue too.
