These are small yellow objects that are hard to see and sitting on the roof. I've submitted a screenshot of one with the mount for scale.

Description
I have eyes in every crevice of the city save for one that has... eluded me. The Transformatory is the grounds of Ansurek's most precocious minions and treasured pets. It is where the Ascension process was developed. I've only gotten my claws on it recently, thanks to dear Y'tekhi. Much of it remains uncomfortably shrouded. A more legs-on approach is in order. Place shadecasters to collect intel from my scouts, then meet Y'tekhi and your own spymaster Voss in a discreet corner of the district.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Gathering Intel
The Widow Arak'nai sent word via one of those "weave-rats" of hers. She has a lead that may be relevant to our cause, and has invited us to investigate. All the training in the world is useless without knowledge of our enemy. My own reconnaissance efforts in Azj-Kahet were met with...
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Creeping Through Corridors
I've identified three sites of interest to investigate. A stockpile on the east side of the complex, a warehouse in the center, and lastly, that big storehouse with royal Sureki flags outside it. We'll rendezvous there. There's less chance of discovery if we move separately through the area.
