For those of you who are using or romancing Anomen,

Okay, I'm a Neutral Good Blade, romancing Anomen. I don't know if this bug is part of the Anomen Romance, or just part of Anomen's quest--probably the latter.

Early romance dialogues went fine. Got the message that Moira was dead, talked to Dad, did the Lawful thing. Headed on over to Spellhold. A few romance dialogues while in Chapters 4-5. Emerged from the Underdark, got summoned for his Test. Passed, big group hug. Got laid. Got vampirized, got resurrected. Then, got another message: Pa Delryn just bit it, and would not have bit it had Anomen made the right decision and stood by his Pop. Anomen immediately dashes off, to (assumedly) wreak vengeance on Saerk for having demolished his family. On the rest of the party's arrival in the Bridge District, we enter the 2nd floor of Saerk's Estate, and the Guards wilt like cut grass upon our approach. A servant tell us that a former Paladin of the Radiant Heart had burst in and murdered Saerk, and is now "in deep seclusion within the Order."

I head on over to the Radiant Heart. Checked every room, he ain't there. Talked to every single person, nobody knows anything.
Checked the Delryn Estate, the Temple of Helm, the Council of Six building, the Prison, nothing. Slept for days waiting for something to happen. Nada.

Things I might have done to screw up:
1) In our most recent Lovetalk, I chose the 2nd-most lovey-dovey thing. It sounded positive, but not as "I love you to the ends of the earth" as the #1 answer. Anomen said that he had hoped that I felt the same way toward him as he did toward me, but that that would be too much to hope for.
2) After losing Anomen (and some damn good equipment, I might add), I disbanded the rest of the party (Nalia, Imoen, Valygar, & Mazzy) as well, and went & picked up Korgan, Jan, Jaheira, Keldorn, and Cernd, so I could do their quests. This "second party" lasted quite a while--long enough to do Korgan's quest, drop him for Edwin, and spend a few weeks running back & forth from the Forest of Tethir to see Edwin's quest all the way through. I'm afraid that this long delay may have made the game 'forget' to put Anomen back.
3) In the long delay mentioned above, we did Jaheira's Harper quests, but not to completion--We killed Dermin, but waited and rested and waited, but no Harper Pin. Could a choke in the Jaheira quest have choked up the Anomen quest?

Okay, that's enough boring text from me for one night.
