So for those who had issues trying to turn in this quest because the NPC won't appear even after abandoning/retaking the quest--
I submitted a ticket twice to get this resolved, and received this reply from the GM:"Checking into this it looks like what had happened is you had started up this questline on two characters, but because it can only be completed once on your account this had caused the turn-in to no longer be available on Rousse. Additionally you managed to complete the quests after it so you're past the point where it would had been available to complete.
That said I have gone ahead and marked it as completed for you so the next time you login it should no longer appear in your quest log or map."If you can, I would suggest try completing it on another character you remember starting it with. If not possible, try submitting a ticket (this will be bit of a hassle because they don't make it easy). I did have to resubmit the ticket because they tried to redirect me, so it may take a few tries. Hopefully in the future they fix the quest so this won't happen.
Same here. Abandoning and taking it again didn't help. I had finished this quest line on a different char though, so maybe the step atop the tower is just phasing.. and you're not supposed to do this quest line twice, but I had started it on two chars. See comments for the achievement as well, better do it all on one.

The enchantment will protect us from the unstable energy contained within. I will open the way to the nearest stone. Once you pass through, stay close. I shall need your assistance when we arrive to power up the device.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Nightborne Know-How
Ancient symbols aren't really me thing. However... <Thaelin searches through his belongings, eventually pulling out a map. At the top of the parchment appears the name Antonidas, scribbled in large, sloppy letters.> Ah hah! Here it is!
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- An Ancient Awakening
The waygate sits just behind me. There is no way to tell how long we have until the waning enchantment on this vessel fades, or even worse, breaks. That amount of unstable energy being released could be catastrophic. Shall we continue?
