Hamlet Defense would be still ingame, but the way to defend them can change. Like I said, details.
This doesn't necessarily mean Hamlet Defense will be staying, it just means Hyrstmill is still there and you can do some quests there.

The reps said that your current progress for relic weapons will be saved, but there's really no progress recorded until you actually turn in the beastmen seals. So it sounds like the content revolving around getting the promissory note and beyond will still exist in ARR to cater to those who are still working on a relic.

I imagine the quest is going to change in some respects, it's just unknown how until we actually get our hands on the game. Beastmen sound like they're going to be a major part of the story in ARR, so it's quite possible hamlet defense will stay and the relic quest doesn't change much at all. We'll just have to wait and see.
