What company takes half a year to fix a single, major bug? It's not like you're juggling an MMO here, this is the kind of issue that should be at the top of your list. At the very least give us the ability to reset the quest or to just staple Gulum-ei to his spot at the end of the hidden cave. I'm sure there are many people who will be perfectly satisfied with a bandaid, it doesn't need to be a beautiful, complex fix. Just let us progress already!
