If you're confused as to where the defenders are (as I was):
The DEFENDERS you're buffing are BEHIND the quest giver over a bit of a hill; there's another quest in the same area: We're Surrounded
I know I had turned (since there were Earthen fighting behind me, and that's where the quest giver was facing) and run that way, only to find nothing of use... there are defenders, but they are outside of the area you can use the "boon" in.

1) Use the boon on Stonehearth Defenders and not on Earthen Geomancers
2) Make sure the buff isn't already active (maybe from another player doing the same quest) on the NPC
3) Stay facing the NPC until the spell is complete and you get progress, i.e., don't mount or turn away and run, you must face the NPC during the spell.

Description

With the Stonefather taken prisoner, our forces are demoralized. Normally any one of mine could take five times his number of stone troggs. But now.... I want you to head out into the field surrounding the town. Plant Stonefather Oremantle's banner near my defenders. Grant them his boon and remind them of that for which they fight.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.
