Oculeth's Test Chamber teleport pad is at 49.3 48.2 point (there's the building, where you have found Oculeth first time). Inside the Test Chamber you have to pick up four orbs (placed on the floor) and Telemancy Notes. Notes are in the opened chest at the another end of chamber. There you'll also find a portal back to Shal'Aran.

Description

In order to advance our studies I must ask you to recover a few particular items from my long-forgotten chambers. I assure you it is... mostly safe there, aside from a few unstable elements. Make your way to my workshop and locate the teleporter. I'll disable its cloaking device when you arrive.

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.
