Id column is approximate quest № In Drustvar storyline (Drust Do It. <= for more info)
Was this maybe some hidden quest or was the NPC 'phased'? I have never seen this quest until just today while doing my Embers Emissary quests. Strange.

Description
Be wary mainlander, dangers lurk nearby. One such creature, Greenstalker, used to be an ally. In his corrupted, mindless rage he nearly killed my brother and I while we were trying to help someone in the wilds. There is something which might help but I must tend to my brother's wounds and cannot obtain the remaining item on my own. Please go onto the mountainside and pull some saplings out of the earth for me. The plants here are healthy and their roots run deep so they won't come easily.
