The missing dirk. Potential glitch(3 golden bowls)*fix*

[SeeSquared]

So the quest 3 golden bowls has a common glitch that if you progress in the game too far before completing the quest dirk disappears from the game and the quest is broken. I used a console command to finish the quest since i assumed it was not possible to complete. From what i read it was thought he disappears completely but i actually just found him. Hes under the trap door in the eastern temple and before he starts the dialogue for the temple quest he gives you the spiel about the artifact. Since the quest was completed he just moved on to talking about the current quest. So if anyone else experiences this glitch and you dont want to input a console command to complete the quest... You know where to find him!

This is not a bug! And this is not even a glitch.

This happens because NPCs in this game change locations depending on the story.

Dirk just moves from harbor town to the eastern temple and is positioned correctly in the rooms under the trap door.

But how is olaf released before you have all 3 bowls? And why would dirk go to the temple before you tell him to go there? Sorry im not the only one who experienced this.. Its definitely a glitch... Either that or really poor quest progression. But youd be hard pressed to convince me it was intentional.
