May not be able to complete in a raid.
You don't have to wait for the NPCs to run up the stairs and for the portal to appear, just run up the stairs and into the large door and it'll immediately port you to the Purple Parlor.

Description
Wars are not won solely with armies charging bravely across the battlefield, {class}t. Sometimes, it is the actions of individuals that matter most, fighting battles few ever hear about. That is why - <Khadgar furrows his brow slightly.> We should really discuss this somewhere a tad more private. Let's move up to the Purple Parlor, shall we?

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Council's Call
I'm sorry that I haven't kept your apprised of the situation. We needed more actionable information before bringing the matter before you. The Council of the Six has been investigating Legion threats outside of the Broken Shore. I believe this scroll to be the final piece of information we need.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- In Dire Need
The ill tidings you bear only increase the concerns the Council has been having. I know you have your hands full with the Tomb of Sargeras. Make no mistake, the battle for the tomb remains our top priority--but we must not think the Legion foolish enough to rely on brute force alone.
