If Mikanikos is not present when you finish and he ports you back to quest start, a simple fix is the following.
Leave the area and return!
Oddly enough reloading and relogging did not solve my issue with turn in npc spawn

I found a bug on this quest. The Forsworn Colossus could not be clicked on to unleash the workers on to dismantle it.

The workaround is to just use "/tar for" to manually target it. Then you can use your 3rd ability from Bron to toss the workers and dismantle the big Colossus.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.
