I am having trouble picking up the quest. I abandoned it because I did not receive the shield or an option to pick it up anywhere, in order to do the quest. I thought that maybe by dropping it and picking it back up night fix it, but it didn't lol it made it worse because now I can't pick up the quest again. I am right where the yellow "!" mark is to pick up the quest and can see it on the map, but can't see it above any NPC's head in the area. Please help so I can continue my questline in Exiles Reach.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Deadliest of Poisons
You've got the poison. Now it's time to take out that ogre. Gutgruk the Tough. He usually patrols around their citadel. Probably looking for your expedition as we speak! Poison your blades, then take that monster down.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Priest's End
You're a trained priest, right <name>? This might be up your alley. We've spotted the bodies of other recruits from our expedition. I'm guessing they washed up on a different part of the island. They didn't make it very far. When you have a moment, could you say a few prayers over them?
