I did this quest after Legion went live via [npc=113873] in the new Dalaran. The moment I handed it in and got the glove rewards, Dalaran phased out of existance and I found myself falling for 1000+ ft. over Karazhan. Good thing I was a new Demon Hunter, b/c I immediately activated Glide and slowly landed on Karazhan's roof, getting the achievement Going Down? in the process.

After completing this quest, speak with [npc=113873] in Legion Dalaran's Violet Citadel to begin the next series, which starts with, City Under Siege.
It seems this quest has been hotfixed? After I completed the quest, I was teleported to Broken Isles Dalaran, there was no falling down to Karazhan. (Not that it'd matter, I was in my sub rogue :P )

Description
Magni's information was enlightening. It should prove handy to have a friend who has the ear of a titan. It's time to head into Karazhan. Not that I need to remind you, but it can be a dangerous place. There are countless strata of spells woven throughout the tower, and the interactions of the forces within can be... unpredictable. Be on your guard. I'll join you inside. I need a moment to... gather my thoughts. This place holds a lot of memories for me.
