Playing on Xbox One X via Game Pass. When talking to Pavarti to get the quest "Don't Bite the Sun", the quest fails mid conversation as soon as you accept it. When checking the botched missions, it gives the reason for failure being that Pavarti has died. This is on normal difficulty. She's also still usable as a companion, but you can't get any further with her companion quests because the game has her flagged as dead.
