After handing this quest in, to pick up the next quest, The Broken Sky go to:
/way 45.5 66.1
I believe this is because the next event in the story sequence is the Voidspire raid. Broken Sky is third in the questline that begins with the raid, and Arator is commenting on the aftermath of the disaster.

What to do
Description
With the Patriarch defeated, these cunning creatures should no longer pose a serious threat. Return to Turalyon and report on our success. I will join you all shortly.
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.
- Killing Blow
I heard about these beasts, but I thought it was a rumor. Void creatures appearing out of void portals, kidnapping and eating our officers... sounds like a load of bunk. I never thought it'd happen to me. There was a big one that got me, but he ran off.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- War of Light and Shadow
The Vanguard has begun to rally its forces to confront the Devouring Host. Report to Lady Liadrin at the Sunwell to join the offensive.
