If you can't see the NPC or accept/re-accept the quest:
These quests are part of the Uprising Event, you need to be in the Uprising "phase" to see and accept the quests.
To get back into the Uprising mode talk to Primrose Crankshaft and select her chat option.
She should also be marked on the map, right outside the hotel.

That is every comment on this page.

Description

Hah! I've never been feeling better! Now, we seize back what rightfully belongs to Blackwater, {name}. They've turned our prized headquarters into a smuggler's cove for that foul sludge. There are too many crates of Black Blood to deal with right now, but they can't move their cargo without fresh bodies. Let's cut them down.

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.

A Vast, Ye SwabsUndermine · Level 80
Urgh. I've been locked up for so long. In my anger, I got reckless. Whatever Noggenfogger gave ya, I promise not to squander. Get me back in the fight and we'll bring the full swell of Blackwater's might down on these invaders.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

Repel the InvadersUndermine · Level 80
A big lunk of a hobgoblin, Skeez, took over the docks around the time that Gallywix had me thrown in the brig. He moved his Darkfuse in, and a lot of my Blackwater lads went missing. Captain took that personal, and so do I. Skeez thinks Gallywix will keep him safe. Let's kill him.
