Perhaps you should send a champion in search of them.

When this quest becomes available [npc=107482]
Archmage Vargoth Shivers and mutters something unintelligible under his breath.

then after you've sent it from the mission board
Archmage Vargoth says: I... I am needed elsewhere.

Hint hint ;-)

For the record, this is the questline that is prerequisite to "Final Exit" -- to get your Millhouse Manastorm as one of your champions.
This line grants you Esara and Ravendwyr as champions.
