About Blackwing Descent
Nefarian and his warped attempts to create a new breed of dragon were thought to be defeated after his death in Blackwing Lair. Yet tales have emerged that his father, Deathwing, has reanimated Nefarian and set him to work in Blackwing Descent. The gruesome experiments being conducted there are feared to be on a level of wickedness far surpassing Nefarian's previous crimes against nature.

ok, the Entrance to this is at 24/26 in Burning Steeps, when you open up the map it in on the right side of the mountain, NOT inside. You have to fly up to it but there is a Summoning Stone
He does, he's an undead dragon with a darker looking model now.
