If like me, you are completely derping and oblivious ( plain just not reading and comprehending), the crystal is right beside Thalyssra - click it. /derp

The crystal needs to be clicked at the right angle and distance...if the glowing action hand/cursor isn't showing for you, move around a bit and keep trying.

What to do
Description
{name}! The messages from Ly'leth we traced throughout the Terrace - we could not have known at the time, but somebody was watching. This crystal was delivered by a courier early this morning. <Pointing to the crystal by her side.> I am afraid the message contained within is not for the faint of heart. It has not been shown to anyone else, but you deserve to see it for all you have done for us.
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.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Advisor and the Arcanist
This new First Arcanist appointed by Elisande. This... Andaris. If she is as dangerous as I have heard, then Ly'leth may well be lost. I am sorry, I should not entertain such thoughts. It is just that we have received a troubling message.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Challenge From Our Enemies
Make no mistake. This message cannot be taken lightly. Any threat made against our people will be dealt with swiftly. We must travel to the estate at once to discover what has become of Ly'leth.
