This quest is broken for me. The last foreman will not have a quest marker and when I did find him, nothing happens. There are lots of other players just standing around too.

Foreman Uzjax: Just enter this little room /way 48.98 17.35
If she's not available where she's supposed to be, relog. That fixed the issue for me.

What to do
Description
I have to stop the High Speaker from making more skardyn. Machine Speaker protocol dictates that one of the foremen in this area should have a key to the Hall of Awakening. Come with me, and we'll track it down!

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Absent Speaker
It is a dark day for the Ringing Deeps, <name>. I always knew there was something about the High Speaker that wasn't quite right. Now we have proof. And we need justice. If he has plans for the Awakening Machine, then we've got to stop him.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Battle of the Earthenworks
<name>! There's a battle afoot! We need to assist Machine Speakers loyal to our cause and move against anyone defending the High Speaker. I'm going to remain and make plans with Adelgonn.
