Blacksmithers are lucky, they have only 1 dungeon quest. Alchemy for example has raid quests;p and Engineering is gated with Nightfallen reputation.
Maw of Souls = [zone=7812].
You need to kill the last boss [npc=96759]
She will also drop [item=136696] if you have the profession.
Btw you can take another profession and still be able to complete this quest.Here is my main Legion Blacksmithing post: WOWHEAD LINK.

The quest item drops from the last boss in the dungeon, Maw of souls. The quest is needed to learn how to make Demonsteel, and in turn, complete the quest Trial by fire. Trial by fire is needed by all to make obliterum.
What a long drawn out process.....and you need to be 110 to get the pre-req quest from the trainer in Dalaran.

Description
Your hammer looks weak, and would probably break upon striking the Firmament Stone. The vrykul master blacksmiths of old were known for the strength of their hammers. The only way to get our hands on such a hammer would be to go where vrykul go when they die. To the Maw of Souls. The goddess that resides over that realm is named Helya. She hoards the trinkets they bring for her own desires. Defeat her and you may be able to acquire such a hammer.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Leystone Mastery
Smiths that seek access to the Firmament Stone must first prove complete mastery over leystone. Craft an entire set of Leystone Armor, then submit it to me for inspection. Thala can provide you with an armor stand.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Worthy of the Stone
You have nothing more to prove to me, <name>. Your training is complete. Only a very small herd of smiths have earned the right to the Firmament Stone. You should speak with Muirn Ironhorn, who maintains vigil over our sacred stone. He will tell you what to do next.
