Quest bug: Old Muskroot's Tower

[AKMatt]

Character name: Grado Halinbach

After taking the 2-4 sarcophagus quest I arrived near the "Explore Old Muskroot's Tower" quest placeable.  I clicked on it, and was presented with the option to Head to Old Muskroot's Tower, or turn away.  I clicked "[Head to Old Muskroot's Tower]" and the conversation ended.  My journal updated, saying I had decided to check out Old Muskroot's Tower, but nothing happened.  Subsequent clicks on the placeable prompted the message "...nothing to see here." and the EFUQS message, "[Quest already taken by a party member.] rather than the option to continue or abandon the quest.

Nevermind, this was apparently just confusion on my part due to the new "Explore Mistlocke" placeables having a different functionality than the old placeables for beginner quests.

It's basically an optional loop of placeable given quests intended to get you to head to different key areas for some free XP. I'll edit to make it more clear that it's not necessary to abandon it though.
