The quest completion, for some reason was not showing on my map. I took the flight path to Irongrove Retreat in Suramar and then went to the coords that others provided - 17.95, 38.30 and the completion was there, but it still never showed on my map.

Description

I do not know what Theryn found, but I know where he found it. Moonshade Sanctum, to the west. Beyond the Temple of Fal'adora. Whatever power altered Theryn's arcane essence... Whatever power allowed Kel'danath to create a spell to soothe the withered... Its source rests there. I know this as surely as if I had been there myself.

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.
