Velen's flashback here is right out of the book Rise of the Horde. The crystal he's holding is the Ata'mal Crystal, an ancient gift the naaru gave to the eredar eons before this. When Sargeras first came to Argus, Velen prayed with the Ata'mal Crystal to seek guidance and met K'ure, who showed him the truth of what Sargeras planned and told him to gather allies. Velen entrusted his friend Talgath to gather allies as well, but Talgath actually told Kil'jaeden what Velen was planning. When Velen held up the Ata'mal Crystal it shattered into seven shards (one for each color of the rainbow) and called the Genedar to get the draenei out of there safely. Eventually the Genedar would crash on Draenor and the orcs would call it Oshu'gun.
Of the seven Ata'mal shards, only some have appeared in the game before:
-Heart of Fury, the red shard, was initially at the Black Temple and later put inside the Medallion of Karabor.
-Spirit's Song, the violet shard, was held by Culuthas until he was killed and it was delivered to A'dal.
-Leafshadow, the green shard, was once used to keep the city of Telmor invisible. In Warlords of Draenor we used it to cloak our armies while attacking the Shadow Council in Talador.The crystals that haven't appeared in game are:
Brilliant Star (yellow)
Eye of the Storm (blue)
Fortune's Smile (either orange or indigo)
Shield of the Naaru (either indigo or orange)

Description
The shattered ruin below us is all that remains of Eredath. We called it the Jewel of Argus. It was here that my fellows in the triumvirate guided our people to prosperity. That was a long time ago. <Velen lapses into a moment of silence.> Join me on the surface. We will begin our search for the Crown of the Triumvirate.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Floating Ruin
We knew the Legion to be a formidable foe, but recent events demonstrate that we do not possess the necessary strength to continue. We have come too far to fail at this critical moment. I know of a relic on Eredath, my ancient home, that may be our salvation.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Defenseless and Afraid
This is the battle that raged while I awaited the Genedar. So many ran to join me, but Kil'jaeden inspired still more to stand in their way. My people were slaughtered without mercy. To cover our retreat I ordered for this arena's defenses to be activated. It is clear that they were unable.
