The NPC you need to set free is inside a small amber block, on the ground, behind a large root. You'll see a gear icon on your minimap, and the amber block itself also has a small gear icon above it. Targeting the block itself does nothing; you have to stand next to the block and use the quest item itself.
Coordinates 56,58.
I had the same problem as anafielle's post (unable to see Hisek/ unable to complete quest). I believe the "possible glitch" happens when you're doing the quest as a party, only the 1st person who uses tuning fork proceeds with the animation. I saw the traitor sequence on my wife's screen but not mine. I eventually had to abandon the quest and redo - phasing/ leaving zone did not work. A second glitch happened even after I did the traitor sequence properly - I handed in quest but got no new quests (my wife received 2). This time the phasing in/out of zone worked. My guess is, don't do this quest grouped.

Description
The beacon in Amberglow Hollow seems to have been tampered with. Right before the signal cut out the Klaxxi'va picked up a signal for another paragon nearby. They believe he is hidden in that wretched little swamp, Duskroot Fen. I will meet you in the fen to set up a temporary beacon until I can get Amberglow operational again. You will wake the paragon and then you will help me.
