Press F2 when next to the missing NPCs AID encounter and attached the screenshot to this post
Same

Same realm, same Aid build, same issue. This is also the realm with the Frankenstein quest
Had this happen in a Desert Astrolabe site, no realm cards used
I have had this happen in different aid sites. I have only had it happen in the higher tier realms (Herbarium, Gloom, Hunt; I have not gone to ascended realms yet).
I've had this happen before with a large structure, but this time it was Antiquarian Desert (Hard) and the NPC-less Aid site was the tent with several craft stations & bedroll needing to be completed. Checked with spyglass as well as looking around in case revival was needed, but no sign of the NPC and no reward for completing the structures.
I encountered spiders when I reached the AID structure. I'm not sure if the NPC was never there or was eliminated by the spiders before I arrived. There was an Insight POI nearby (which I completed) that may have been close enough to the AID NPC to trigger a losing battle with the spiders before I could discover that aid was needed. If it matters, the attached F2 screenshot was taken after exiting Nightingale, restarting after finding this bug, and then returning to this location for the screenshot.
