If you're encountering phasing problems, it's because you need to complete the quest line that opens up Sha'Aran (The Nightfallen faction).
The Quest line starts in Dalaran with Khadgar's Discovery which is the Suramar starter quest and ends with Shal'Aran
Duskrider Silaryn is not enabled for cross faction tagging, and dies super fast.
Duskrider Silaryn is up the hill at 31, 53.
