Go to
/way 65.66 26.71
then go downstairs in the catacomb and click the book. Then go up again and out and to
/way 65.91 28.96
where Emil will then spawn and be ready to get escorted out. Really was not clear to me from the quest that he isn't down in the catacomb where the book is and that you have to go up again.

Description
Watcher Emil is my trusted overseer of the catacombs. Before I was thrown into the Maw, half of the mirror was entrusted to him. I had him stationed at the Catacombs of Regret. But I do not know where in the sprawl he is. There is a guard station near the entrance to the catacombs. Start the search there. There is an officer who can help us, I--I can't remember who. That is, provided they survived this whole mess. You must find Emil at once. We may not have much time.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Curator
I tasked the Curator with reacquiring the Medallion of Avarice. However, since her return from the Maw, her mind has become... a bit chaotic. Do be kind, will you? I ask that you lend her assistance in her search. She is at the Crypt of the Forgotten.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Combing the Catacombs
When the anima drought began, our defenses began to fail. Our guards, weakened by the lack of anima, became overrun as the sinstones this land is built upon rose up around us. Not to mention the manifestations of the souls who can no longer be tended to are running wild.
The storyline at a glance
Avarice has 12 steps, from Medallion of Avarice to Return to Sinfall.
