Kalecgos is at the top of the Nexus (not in the instance), you will see a yellow dot that shows his location- ignore that the arrow points down, he's up. Once up there you get an extra action bar you have to click to "claim" it- but you then have to fly to it and click on it for it to go into your inventory. (I could not reach it from the ground).

Description

You have done much to empower the Heart of Azeroth, and I am proud that the dragonflights have lent their strength to your cause. It is now time for the blue dragonflight to do the same. When I first learned of the essences, I knew that some remnant of my dragonflight's power must be out there, coalescing where we were once strong. That is exactly what I have found. The Kirin Tor have isolated its signature at the Nexus, but only the wielder of the Heart of Azeroth can claim it.

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.
