For players new to Orgrimmar and the Horde... like me... the Cleft of Shadow is an underground area in the center of Org. I found him by asking directions to the mage trainers. One of the entrances to this area is at 46, 67.
Neeru Fireblade is located in the hut facing Ragefire Chasm in the Cleft of Shadows area of Orgrimmar.

What to do
Description
The Searing Collars you brought me are powerful demonic implements. Divining their origin is, I'm afraid, beyond my skills as a shaman. We will need a warlock to study them. Take a searing collar to Arnak Fireblade. Although he is a skilled warlock, he professes to use his powers to thwart demons, and claims his research in the occult is benign. Be that true or false, we may need his aid against the demonic cult in Durotar. You may find Arnak in Orgrimmar in the Cleft of Shadow.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Skull Rock
<name>. The Burning Blade has infested the cave east of Orgrimmar known as Skull Rock. Inside that cave they perform vile rituals, and burn their own flesh with Searing Collars. By wearing these collars, I believe the cultists attune themselves to demonic power.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Winds in the Desert
I'm Rezlak, one of Gazlowe's boys. Boss sent me to help the orcs here in Durotar. Things'd been going good except for the caravans. Can't manage to keep them safe! Makes my job a little harder, you know?
