If this quest bugs, just abandon it, you will be teleported to the quest giver.
This quest is completable (16th October), however on my first time trying to complete it I came across 2 bugs.
One was not being able to cast Ysera's ability on the first part of the scenario. Logging out on the spot and relogging kept me on Ysera and she was able to cast.
The second one was on the part where you need to help various notable Ardenweald characters, the big tree was stuck on the edge and I couldn't target and kill the little mobs he is facing, thus I had to quit the scenario and re-do it. The second time I rushed to him first and he was on his correct position and not near an edge that made mobs untargettable.
Course after this quest, you'll still see Drust everywhere...
Nice amount of rewards fitting the end of the story. But kind of amazing there is zero rep? You'd think there'd be a huge rep reward.

I fear Lord Herne will have further need of our aid before this night is over. Come, I'll put some wings on you. We'll have to fly if we want to keep up with him.
