I was hoping I would be able to take Synome later, but as soon as I walked out the gate of Gran Soren to continue with Selene on to the Healing Spring, the quest failed and was irreversable since I didn't have a save point prior to it.

I didn't read this article regarding the quest before taking the mission, (I try to use this wiki as a go-to when I'm stumped, rather then as a cheat). If I get around to playing through a second time, I'll be better prepared. Not only with this quest, but others as well in order to get a different outcome, (I slaughtered every bandit when going for the grimoire as I didn't know they weren't aggressive and I could bargain for the grimoire).
