They're looking for the wrong person. They need the High Listener instead!
I accepted this quest and Brinthe zapped me, now I'm pulsing golden glowy stuff and I can't move! Bugged!

Description
I'm seeing legitimate concerns. We have to do something about the nerubians... even if the High Speaker won't. If he won't do something, I will. The High Speaker sent me to the surface because I wasn't "reasonable." I think we should have a chance to... reason... with him. We'll need to go to Gundargaz.
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.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Getting Off Track
Speaker Brinthe acknowledged. Outlanders, there is work to do. One of our larger mine carts has derailed. It's blocking the station's main junction. My workers' productivity is impaired, and their functioning is suboptimal. The titans put us here to work, but my workers aren't all working.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Cogs in the Machine
Gundargaz is my home. Or at least, it was before the High Speaker saw fit to reassign me above ground. I've missed my home, but it's... changed. As the number of Machine Speakers decreases, we're in a race against time.
