idk if this quest is buged or not or just a issue with a update changed things or maybe because of a mod I have that would cause fastred and bassianus not to leave ivarstead right away to riften. but aren't they supposed to leave right away to riften. I waited 24 hours later and both of them are still in ivarstead. because I rember doing this on the ps3 and they went to riften right away. intead on the pc version fastred goes to her parents house and just sits there till next moring and then goes back work on her parents farm and bassianus just stays in the inn almost all day intell he goes in his and klimmeks house at night then goes back to the inn. but yea will still let me continue the mara quest. to the next couple but id like to see them back in riften anybody had same issue or know what going on. even though if I talk to klimmek she stay in ivarstead but that part of the quest because he rather stay they so does her father want her to stay there. basicly both are just a matter of choice but id like to see a couple more people in riften. and both are the right choice to go to the next part of the mara quest..

I have honestly never paid attention to when they leave just happen to notice them in the market district after I finish the quest.
