Well the point of that subquest was to serve as your introduction to Stanos in the first place and get him to spawn. So no big deal. The rogue epic quest was originally designed to be pretty epic. But it didn't take long for people to realize that you can completely bypass every single hard part, excluding the kedge robe.
In the future, don't do any negative faction con quest turn in ever. Always get behind the mob and do a sneak turn in if you con below indifferent.
BTW, now that I think of it, Malka gave you a pouch for Vilinus and he eventually gives you the same pouch to spawn Stanos. Might be coded as different items and why Anson ate your turn in. Props for trying to do the quest proper way, but just.. don't.
Notes + book of souls = Renux = General = Epic or Robe subquest = Epic.
