This was added on 13 June 2023 as a quest outside the raid entrance.
I must say, as a non-raider, I really appreciate being brought into the storyline after the events. This works with roleplay as well. "Oh, someone else cleared the area. Now, I can go in and investigate." Very nice.
Can't complete this quest! :( Get all the way to inside, get up the part where Sabellion kneels before the body of the Drained Djaradin.. and he just doesn't get back up.. he just stays there and will not move! Tried zoning out, abandoning and retaking quest..everything.. still hit the same issue! :(

What to do
Description
Sarkareth is no more. His hubris left him vulnerable to the dark influences that have assaulted our flight for millennia. Just like Neltharion before him. I believe Emberthal seeks more answers than what Wrathion and Sabellian are able to give. She may need some assistance.

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.

Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Remnants
Some call me a miracle, you know. Yet my birth was anything but natural. I was crafted, much as the creatures in here were crafted. Many died painful, tragic deaths so that I could live. This... callousness towards the living is something I wish to eradicate.
