So, this is a bit of an odd one. My main is a Dark Iron Dwarf mage, was originally a Gnome (race changed during BFA to get the Mole Machine ability). So I had never done this quest.
During the Dragonflight storyline, I was teleported back to Shadowforge City, where this quest was available (since I had never done it). Curious what would happen, I accepted it before being pulled back to Thaldraszus. I am now a level 70 Dark Iron Dwarf who has this quest in their quest log. And I am inclined to neither abandon it nor turn it in.
