Had issue where quest giver did not provide quest "When a Gorm Eats a God". Rebooted game, and the quest giver disappeared. Rebooted again, she was still gone. Rebooted for the 3rd time and she reappeared with the quest. It was about 15 minutes that all this took place. Hope this information helps. I also put in a ticket but I cancelled it after receiving the quest.

Description

There is nothing more we can do here. I will get Master Sha'lor safely back to Tirna Vaal. When you get there, report to the droman what we found here. If the gorm have started to eat the dead wildseeds, and are absorbing the power of the spirits within, we are all in serious danger.

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.
