Need More Info Missing companion

[juice1367]

Im not sure if this is a map issue or what, but I sent my favorite companion Shemyr Frostbeard on a quest for one of the people in Marunath to go fight 5 bandit groups. Come 10 days later I try to see where hes at to have him rejoin the party and in the members screen of the clan tab it just says HOLDING and when I click on him it says he was last seen around Ain Balique that day and it says that everyday but ive looked around the town for a couple hours and cant find him. I thought maybe the HOLDING means he was captured but ive fought a bunch of bandits with prisoners and havent found any bandit camps either and still cant find him. Im afraid of kicking him from clan cause I gave him a bunch of good gear and leveled him up a lot and I dont want him lost forever.

This is a bug I've run into three separate times (with three separate companions). They always disappear after a standalone quest and are listed as "HOLDING" and always in Ain Balique.

This isn't a fix, per se, but you can dismiss and rehire them. Though 10 of my best troops also disappeared along with the character.

Summary:
How to Reproduce: Send a follower on a mission without you (this appears as though it can happen on *any* mission, randomly)
Quest/Settlement Name (if related): Ain Balique (where they always wind up)
Media (Screenshots & Video):
Version: Latest patch as of 04/03/20 (...ya'll could stand to add a "version number" on the main loading screen to make this a little easier on us?)
Computer Specs: NVIDIA's GeForce NOW service
OS: Windows
GPU: RTC T10-8
CPU: no idea
RAM: no idea
Motherboard: no idea
Storage Device (HDD/SSD): Again, probably SSD

I had the same issue happen to two companions on random missions. I guess I will have to dismiss and rehire until it is fixed.

I've also had this issue once, and solved via kicking them as amethystmedicus suggested. However, I now rather than being stuck "HOLDING", I have to companions stuck "solving issue" in Ain Balique, so I cannot even kick them.
Summary:
How to Reproduce: Same as above
Version: 1.05
Computer Specs:
OS: Windows
GPU: AMD
CPU: AMD Ryzen
RAM: Ballistix
Storage: Crucial SSD
