This just happened to me, and it was actually really easy to pick it up again! I abandoned after dying in Defeat the Guardian of the Portal and resurrecting at the wayshrine and not being able to find a way to return to the portal. After I abandoned, I thought I'd just be able to pick it up, but there were no markers! Eventually, I found a post that said I could go back to the gate where the King and Caldwell are waiting, sneak through the gap in the wall (at the right), and I'd find the person with the quest marker to continue. I tried that--didn't see the person, but I kept heading up, and eventually, I found where Varen and Caldwell came through the portal. Varen had the quest marker, and I was able to pick right back up again!

I only had to redo a few stages to get back to where I'd abandoned it.

So, the short answer, is retrace your steps, continuing until you see someone with a quest marker. You'll likely have to redo a little bit, but not the whole thing.

Good luck! I ended up finishing the quest last night--it was amazing! Truly a great experience! Have fun!
