I can't complete the Shadows of the Past quest in the first Kir'Ko mission. I cleared the Forbidden Archives, then immediately defeated the "image of yourself". The quest marker now indefinitely hovers over an empty hex and I can't progress in the regard.
Have you tried verifying your files?
Yes

Steps to reproduce the issue
In Kir'Ko mission 1, clear Forbidden Archives, then defeat "image of yourself" army on same turn.

Attach DxDiag (PC) or System Info log (Mac)

Hey OscarM, thanks for your report, I'll pass it on to our Campaign team. If I understand correctly you defeated the quest stack before accepting the quest?

Hi OscarM, we found the source of the problem and are putting in a fix for the next patch. Unfortunately the fix is in such a way that you will need to go back to a save from before you killed the stack with the copy of your leader to be able to process further.

No worries! I simply restarted the mission assuming I'd have to do so in the event the bug was fixed and it didn't reoccur after waiting a turn after spawn. Thanks so much for responding and for resolving the issue for future players!

Hello! just wanted to let you guys know, I'm here playing the game 4 years later and the bug still seems to be there. I recreated it the exact same way the OP did.
