This part confused me. If you reach the broker in Oribos and wonder what to do next, pick up the The Al'ley Cat of Oribos and follow as per the Storyline. It's much the same as it was when current with a couple of short cuts.

I have bad news for you if you are at the "Ride Mishi to the Tazavesh Ferry" portion of this.
DO NOT under any circumstance (unless they someday soon, hotfix this) stop looking for Mishi, ask to talk to Cho, and ask him to teleport you because you're lost.
He will do so, yes.
It will flag that step of the quest? NO.And you can deal with the entire story, and at the end, there is no way to turn it in, nor is there any way to go to the place to relive that element and catch the missing ride.
I asked Cho to let me out of Lorewalking, OK. Let me back in to continue the story. Is it flagged all better now? It is not.
Heck, now I'm not even sure how to properly abandon it without having to do ALL of the ethereum story.
Mishi did not appear in Bastion to take me to the Tazavesh Ferry. I talked to Lorewalker Cho who had a "I think I'm lost - teleport me" option, so I took it.
I got to the end of the quest to find the objective still had not completed. I flew back to Bastion and Mishi is still not here.
I exited lorewalking and talked to Cho again and asked him to continue the ethereal story, again flew back to Bastion (thank God I was on my mage) and Mishi was still not there.
Now I have to do the whole storyline starting in Netherstorm again.

Description
The ethereals are most fascinating indeed, but in my studies I have encountered another race of creatures who share many similarities with the ethereals. I feel we should speak of them as well--the brokers. They share a nomadic nature, a desire to collect rare and unusual antiquities, and a penchant for trade. Yet the brokers do not exist on Azeroth. Instead, they dwell in the Shadowlands... the land of death.
