Question about followers and death

[Dagomani]

Hi!
So I was out in a chilly chilly storm on an expidition. My follower froze and reacher zero. It was Vic. She got curropted and caught in tendrils. I cleansed her the second the storm was over and imediately went to a camp to rest and warm up.
After a rest my follower was gone. She had already improved her trust with me, and I am wondering if the game choose to kill her off, after I revived her, or what?
And if she is somehow a lost lamb, is there a way to get her back?

This is a bug, I did encounter this twice. I lost two followers in expedition.

We just updated the experimental branch with a workaround for the lost followers. This fix will bring back followers immediately after being lost during an expedition.

We identified that the followers are falling “into the void”.

We are working to find the underlying cause for this behavior and on a way to fix it. For now, switching to the experimental branch will most likely bring your followers back.

Please be aware that the experimental branch always is for stuff still in testing on our side. Once the complete test cycle is done, the fix will go into the live branch.
However, so far, the fix worked and did not cause any other things to break. If you were to encounter any issues, please switch back to the main branch of Fade to Silence.

How to switch branches:
1. In Steam, click on Library > Games.
2. Scroll down to Fade to Silence.
3. Right-click and select Properties.
4. Go to the BETAS tab.
5. In the dropdown, select the experimental branch to activate it.
6. Steam should automatically update your game.
