He game mystery manor has as quest banish will o wish phenomenon.anyone knows how is this possible?

Maybe you've done the quest.wait what quest it is

You need to wait till you're affect with the will-o-the-wisp and then explore a room with the phenomenon successfully. This will banish it.

I have a question - I can't seem to use any of my friends to explore rooms with! This is really frustrating - I have friends floating around but I can't click them (to see profession etc.) and take them into a room. When I try to click them, the room they're in comes up and I can't take them in with me. Am I doing something stupid?

Ok - I think the problem is that I have a magnifying glass over my own icon that is floating around in the manor. Does this stop me taking others into the rooms?

How do you help a friend by waking up their helpers?
It is great when someone gets my guys moving but how do I return the favor.
I've only figured out leaving hints.
