C1 renewal

Shy is the original NPC before they replaced him with lorna. Old quests can be triggered. I'm guess it has not been entirely removed as of yet. I managed to sequence break a little bit, but end up at a stand still.

As far as distinguishing new from old, New quests are automatically received as you progress through the quest chain. Furthermore, anything dealing with keywords are instead quest objectives. Of course, what infodude said about talking to Lorna will distinguished whether or not you are on the quest chain. Older players that are not elves or giants will still be on the old quest chain, but will receive a quest to select a Renewal for Advent of the goddess. Once you talk to Lorna, you can either start G1, G2, or G3. Choosing C1 will force complete everything. New quest chain has quests for certain parts that never had quests in the old quest chain. Also, the new quest chain auto completes everything unless othewise stated, or your temporary inventory has not been emptied.
