You need to loot the grey key on the floor. not the corpse. Took me a while before i saw it.
For anyone wondering where to GET the quest (because my quest marker kept jumping around depending on where I was inside/out of city and even flying/on the ground changed location):
77 68 City of Threads or 58 89 Ahz-Kahet, it's on the tower in the south-east in the city.

What to do
Description
Why, hello there, little {race}. You seem like you might be able to assist me. You see, my dear mate Ami'thax fell onto a sharp dagger. Her body was taken to Pillar-nest Xesh, just below where we stand. Xesh is used to dispose of all sorts of bodies that we never speak of again. Unfortunately I have need to speak of Ami'thax, because she had the key to my new High Hollows burrow on her when she died. Dreadful timing, really. Would you go and fetch it? Do beware of the spiders, I need my key.

- ...And Now I'm Arachnophobic
Who is there? Someone? Did I imagine you? I am Albert. I was a Pathfinder once. Now that I'm blind, I see no path. It seems wrong to call myself Pathfinder Henson. I can hear, though. I can hear them eating. They eat the fresh parts. My eyes. My insides. It hurts all the time.
