Anyone not able to do this quest? I see no animacones anywhere on the ground. Nor can I complete its partner quest "Cut the Roots". The NPCs to kill are not spawning.
Hi, all mobs and cones here today for this quest - Wildtwister Lewor by the way is on the platform above the muddy pond under tree.

What to do
Description
Wait! Before you enter, I would ask something of you. While we have not had a wildseed in some time, we did keep stores of anima. It served us well in staving off the gorm. Whatever has happened to my village, I do not want this power to remain in their hands. It will better serve Ardenweald in other groves. Keep an eye out for any anima within the village. We will put it to better use elsewhere.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Cut the Roots
It's just as I feared, friend. The entire village is turned, just like Lavrash. Lewor would have transformed the other elders as soon as possible. They are all strong in their own right. Brave Fiona, clever Bitterfly.... It pains me to say this, but they must be destroyed.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Unknown Assailants
This must be the stone he found. I do not recognize the mark. You should bring this to the nearby droman. They are wise and retain much of the knowledge of the forests and the realms beyond. They will know what to do.
