If you need to talk to the Stewards, speak near a spider and a cobweb will appear, projecting the voice of whichever one deigns to answer...

Or you could just go track one of them down like a normal person.

[He sighs. Deeply. It's not quite relief, but it might sound like that over the spider-wireless.]

[The Steward hears that deep sigh. Sounds like a soft spot to poke at. His voice sounds sly and conspiratorial.]

I'm beginning to think so. Even with what she said after - even then, she said she believed in me. Or had believed in me. It's something, at least.
