Is this Rumour actually working for anyone? I can't see any Shadecasters in the quest marked area, and can't find any flying around looking in that area either.
Ru'murh, behind Zara'azj the Magnificent's counter, offers this bonus objective.
Quest text:
<The weave-rat hands you a rudimentary schematic and a softly-glowing purple gem shard. One of the city's shadecasters must be due for some 'emergency maintenance.'>
