I really want Annekke Crag-Jumper for my steward in Lakeview Manor, as she's one of the few follwers than doesn't get on my nerves. When I started my new (now main) character, however, I didn't get around to do her quest to gain her friendship until now, and I've already cleared the dungeon she keeps asking me to clear (Uttering Hills Cave) so it's not marking my quest complete. I've found workarounds for PC and Xbox, but nothing for PS3. Is there anyway I can get around this?

Uttering Hills Cave respawns but if you did the Thieves Guild Quest Summerset Shadows the Bandit Leader will not spawn there anymore. I had this happen with the Captain at Windhelm and I can not fulfill his quest and reloading from before I asked him and asking again does not reset the destination but maybe it will with Annekke. However, I don't know how many game hours you'd have to lose if you reload to the last save point before you asked if you could help her.

Enough hours where I'll just deal with another steward lol, level 81. And yeah, it's Linwe, the bandit leader, not respawning that is causing the issue. I tried the 'Reanimate Corpse' on him to see if I could get around the bug that way, but he's apparently too powerful
