m'ont accompagnée (Follow up from Cécile, Carl and Francis previously)

The final transcript and the bottom 'correct answer line' in the exercise still have '...qui émanaient de ce coin de m'ont accompagnéeS .....' instead of just "....m'ont accompagnée" - agreement with the speaker's gender.  The upper line 'best answer' indicated in the exercise is correct however. Cécile has answered a query on this previously. (I think I remember correctly what was presented in the exercise, but can't go back to recheck)

I must admit I often ignore 'agreement' like this when a text is in first person singular, and instead just use the 'agreement' that applies to me.

Bonjour Maarten,

You are correct and it has been amended. I have taken the test myself and it is now showing the correct agreement. 

Merci et bonne journée !

Isn’t the agreement with the object in this case?
