This quest requires killing the 1st boss (and now, the last boss as well) of the heroic dungeon and thus cannot be stealthed. The item of interest is located right after the 1st boss: up the stairs, to the right, on a table that's to the right of the entrance into the 2nd boss' room.

Just to clarify... You have to kill the last boss on EITHER normal OR heroic. You can only loot the quest quest item, however, from heroic or challenge mode difficulties.

Description
I did not come here to fight, I have seen too many die already. I have killed so many with my own hands. I have come to seek the light, and redemption. The arakkoa of this land worship the sun as I do. But they are a violent, isolationist, and decadent race, who seem to derive a different message than my own people. This troubles me. Bring me one of their Sun Crystals. I wish to see this light.
Getting there
Inside the dungeon: Skyreach
Atop the crowning pinnacle of the Spires of Arak, amidst the clouds, Skyreach stands as the seat of power of the Adherents of Rukhmar. The arakkoa have gathered and harnessed the Apexis technology of their forebears, and now they are ready to unleash the focused power of the sun upon their enemies.
Bosses in the Adventure Guide, in order: Ranjit, Araknath, Rukhran, High Sage Viryx.
Entrance: Spires of Arak at 41.0, 31.4.
