If, like me, you die in a fire and try to find your corpse but see the "your corpse is not in this instance" message, ignore it. Your corpse IS in the instance. Go on in and find it.
Logged in just to upvote this comment personally and provide my thanks, i was in exactly the same situation and was confused as soon as I read my corpse wasn't in that instance.

Description
Look at this... The goblins are looting ancient ornamentation like they're hoarding food at a buffet. What a disgrace. But we do not have time to get bogged down in everything happening here. Gallywix will soon know that we have arrived. We should not hesitate in ascending these stairs and locating Gallywix. I am certain that he will be wherever the thieves are carrying their treasure. Oh, and please do take care. The Zandalari do not typically leave places like this unguarded.
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.
- A Greedy Goblin's Paradise
The Zandalari have many powerful and ancient artifacts tucked away on this island, hidden from view. But some of their treasures are more... conspicuous. It is no surprise that Trade Prince Gallywix was unable to resist the allure of Atal'Dazar, a massive city made entirely of gold.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- I Take No Pleasure In This
I knew that Gallywix was selfish and wasteful, but this... this is too much. His bloated pride has blacked out the sun of good leadership. He hoards the wealth of his people to satiate his gluttony, greed, and lust while his people toil under his calloused heel.
