In case you wandered around Aberrus and aren't sure where to go to continue after this quest, you get the followup from a Djaradin corpse inside Aberrus' Molten Crucible, 43.35, 52.06. The quest mark doesn't show up on your map.

A World of Warcraft quest in Aberrus, the Shadowed Crucible. Facts and objectives from the current retail game data.
The highest voted Wowhead comments for this page. They are community notes, not TheWoWDB comments.
This quest takes place inside a specific kind of Aberrus instance. You need to access this specific Aberrus instance through either Sabellian or Wrathion whom are both located at 48 , 13. You talk to either of them, and they'll send you to the correct instance.
DO NOT FLY INTO THE ACTUAL RAID.
In case, like me, you killed everything before noticing you had to talk to wrathion or sebellian to get to this quest, you can go out of the instance and back in to respawn enough mobs to complete this quest

Description
These sycophants shame themselves and the black dragonflight. It is clear that they are willing to die in service of my father's dark machinations. Let us not disappoint them.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
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.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Honorbound
<The djaradin's body is gaunt and wasted, its life energy siphoned away by the hungry machines that power this dark laboratory. Perhaps there are other djaradin imprisoned here that can be spared from this horror.>
