I'm going through BGII for the second time and I've run into what seems to be a minor bug. I found the guy that had been buried in the Graveyard and he gave me the scrap of red cloth. I've gone to the Bridge District, solved the murder mystery and walked back and forth until I had virtual blisters on my feet LOOKING for the kid in the red shirt.

I can't find him ANYWHERE!!!

IIRC from my first time through, he should be near the house where they are holding the lady captive. I've walked all around that area (and ALL the areas bordering on the water - seems like he was staring into the water when I found him the first time). I've literally Searched day & night, but still haven't found the guy.

Can anybody tell me what I've done wrong (if anything)?

Also, if it makes any difference, I'm playing an assassin this time around. Maybe the fact that I'm evil and have replaced Mae'var as the Guildmaster changed the script....I don't know....I'm fresh out of ideas, so any help would be appreciated.
