In case you have a moment of getting confused about the directions like I and several people by me during launch, and are back here wondering why the fat bug just will not move:
For this quest it is not the large bug Gloober right by the quest giver that you can repeatedly pet just for fun. :)
If you look to the left of where you placed the Wildseed, there are many baby Docile Gromlings waiting to be lured to the Wildseed and the quest is very easy! Good luck

Click when you are 2-3 yards away and try to maintain 8 yards when you walk those Docile Gormlings back
In case you're like me, and running around looking for "the seed", the depleted seed is by the wagon, on the ground, next to the quest giver.

Description
The gormlings are industrious creatures. Naturally, they are our source of gorm gris. Gormlings are cute, small, and hungry, like Gloober here! Except he is not hungry right now, because I just fed him. Look at that little belly... <Ahem>. I digress. Gormlings will be drawn to consume anything that is not brimming with anima. They find it simply delicious. Take that wildseed there, and bring it into their pen. Then, see if you can get the gormlings to feast upon it!

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- In Need of Gorm Gris
Our neighboring grove at Glitterfall Basin has sent out a desperate plea for gorm gris. It may have humble origins, but it is an important ingredient for our artisans and crafters. As this drought goes on, it has become increasingly difficult to collect.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Collection Day
Now, we can collect the gorm gris for Guardian Kota! Once the gormlings have eaten something, we can 'encourage' them to give it back up. What they produce, we call gorm gris! My Gormherd Branch should encourage them to do this safely. Go on, give it a try on good ol' Gloober first.
