I believe I have encountered a bug of some sort.
I'm working on the Ancient Rite of Passage right now, the Lunus path, and I've come to the part where I must collect the second element to put in the Cask.. the wind element. Well, the riddle was obvious from the guide, but when I went to attack the mob, and killed him, the quest did not update, nor did I receive the item in question from the boss -- that is, the Storm Seed, from Galestorm.
I repeated this, and also checked with Lantenal to see if I had missed anything, but I have followed the guide to the T with no change. Am I missing something, or is the Lunus quest possibly broken?
