Just stumbled onto the same issue; go to Tyrhold, a short flight towards the east where Alexstraza is waiting (you can see it from the top of the tower, another tower with a lightbeam shooting up from it). Complete the two quests there; killing a dragon and finding Alexstraza. After that there's a weird double up, her dragon form flies back to Valdrakken and her human form stays outside the dungeon entrance. Her dragon form is now in Valdrakken again, able to interact.

QUEST: A MESSAGE MOST DIRE
There are two quests for turn in when greeting Alexstraza. I turned in the first one on the list, then she flew off and now I can not turn in the second one which is the most important. Come to find out I should have turn in the second quest on her list first.
She is no longer here and have no clue where she is to turn in the second one. I tried to greet her at the Ruby Life Pools, she was there but doesn't acknowledge my quest completion.
Guess I'll have to contact customer service to complete the turn in.
So I tried to send a request for assistance through Customer Service. Guess what! Their Customer Service Request is BROKEN too!
So now I have a character who can't go any further into the Campaign until I can get in touch with the BROKEN WORLD OF WARCRAFT Customer Service!
If you cannot see the NPC for turn in. Open your quest log and ABANDON 'To Tyrhold'. NPC will instantly spawn in front of you ;)

What to do
Description
Kalecgos would not speak of what happened in the Azure Span till you arrived. Whatever he has to share gives me a terrible sense of foreboding, {name}.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- To Valdrakken
Thanks to you, we narrowly avoided a complete catastrophe. However, we should convene with the other Aspects and share word of what happened here. Please meet me at the Seat of the Aspects within Valdrakken. I'm sure the others will have insight into what Raszageth and her Primalists are attempting.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Nowhere to Hide
Welcome to Valdrakken, <race>. The climate in the city has been a bit warm of late, and I do not mean the weather. The Primalists are skulking about, fomenting dissent among the citizens of our city. Our foes are crafty.
