Tomer's Rescue Not working

I have max ally faction, but Tomer refuses to follow me

He willingly gives me his backpack

But when I say, "I can lead you back to master seta," he responds, "What? Knowing how we feel about you and your reputation, not to mention the grief you've caused Master Lu'Sun, you would try to act as my friend?!? Leave me alone!."

When I hand him back his backpack (without doing the quest), he says, "Don't take this personally, but I can't quite trust you with such matters."

I am on a lvl 60 Halfling Druid if that matters.
