Thank you. More than once on this chain I've hit a dead end I wouldn't have found the next step for if I hadn't had Wowhead open. That's a misstep on the writers' part.

Description
Machine Speakers are odd and secretive units, some prone to paranoia. Even so, the grievance they have against Steelvein must be smoothed over. As you have seen in the Forgegrounds, their quarrel with a single smuggler has put the entire city at risk. As Councilward, I will not stand for it. Let us go talk to Ardgrin's employee, Obstorn, and see if he can deliver a diplomatic message to his overseer in the Deeps. I will meet you in the tunnels.
