I searched my ass off on the north-east side of the map to find the NPC that gives this quest, but no NPCs or anything else was spawned there, and the quest pick-up marker was under me, where you couldn't possibly come.
Don't be like me. :D
Go back to Thornhill Manor /way 58.8, 29.9. Enter the mirror. You're now in the Countess's castle (Redelav Tower), and you see a quest pick-up marker in the north east of the map. But don't go there. Instead, turn around and walk back through the mirror you just came through. You are ported to the Curator's Crypt, where the Curator will give you this quest.

I had an issue with the quest bugging and not having food appear on the table. I dropped the quest and went to SW in case it was a zoning issue.
Like others when I arrived back I was unable to get to the NPC to pick up the quest.You can enter the blood mirror at Thornhill Manor 58.8, 29.9 to get back to the Countess.
Hopefully this works for others that need to pick the quest back up from the Curator:
enter blood mirror at thornhill manor
teleport to Redelav Tower
walk to Countess' room
turn around and walk across the hallway (SW) to the blood mirror
enter blood mirror
teleport direct to Curator and the two Kyrian soulbinds
pick quest back up
Once you enter the blood mirror you will be stunned temporarily (15 seconds) along with the [npc=161544]. Once you are no longer stunned walk forward [npc=161996] and then you will sit in the chair to the right of the table. Next she will start talking and then have you eat food from the table and after clicking on the feast the speech will continue. Once they are done talking you will need to eject yourself from the chair (the exit vehicle button) and then walk up to [npc=161996] to turn the quest in. After turning this in she will talk some more and you can get the next part from [npc=161544].
If the quest bugs and you need to drop it you can enter the Blood Portal at 58.81, 29.92 to get back to the Countess.

What to do
Description
The Countess built her reputation on being a native venthyr, never a soul. Revealing her sinstone to the world would be catastrophic. This is the leverage we need for the information we seek. She will tell us where Alwin is. Where the seal is. This mirror leads to her estate. I will follow behind you as backup, but the kyrian shall wait here. Don't let her threaten you. You hold the power.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Through Glass
The mirror frame rests at the bottom of Redelav Hall. Kleia and Pelagos wait there. With these shards, I can piece it together. We will go through, grab the sinstone, and go face the Countess. Let nothing stand in our way.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Land of Light
The Ember Ward is filled with outcasts from Revendreth society, whether they rebelled, crossed a noble, or simply looked at Denathrius wrong. It is a Light-scorched land that drives venthyr mad, unless they manage to stay within the shadows. If Alwin is there, it may be too late.
The storyline at a glance
The Seal of Contrition has 15 steps, from Assistance from Sinfall to The Seal of Contrition.
Maps its steps are placed on (steps per map): Revendreth (13), Bastion (2).
