Yeah, this is called a Translocation Sphere, this one is designated for House fo Plagues. Why the F this is not highlighted as the preferred transport to House of Plagues for this quest is beyond me. In any case, for ease of access this is located right next to the NPC Pandemis

Description

The one with the knowledge you seek is a survivor of the House of Plagues. You already know him. Plague Deviser Marileth may not be the most lucid of conversationalists, but he will know what to do with your plague. Find him near the ruins of that fallen house. But be wary! Many things lurking there could end your existence without a hint of concern.

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.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Consulting Our AlliesTirisfal Glades · Level 50-90

    I hope Calia is right about these lords of Maldraxxus. That they know how to deal with this sort of powerful plague. We've only got one plague eater left, too, but Faranell says he can replicate more of them as long as they're strong enough to survive. Let's get to the Shadowlands.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Feed the EaterMaldraxxus · Level 50-90

    The House of Plagues has suffered calamity, much like Lordaeron. I hope that our work and effort here will reverse some of that destruction. But first, we must reach farther into the House of Plagues so we can strengthen the capabilities of Faranell's plague eater.
