You don't directly get the Overlord quest of the letter. You just become able to obtain Overlord quest from Force Commander Danath Trollbane after you have turned in the letter to Warp-Scryer Kryvin the same room. Moreover, I'm not sure whether you'd have to do the questline of Field Marshal Brocks' (http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=10394) to get the letter from Arix'Amal (http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=19298).

What to do
Description
The honorable Warp-Scryer has told me of your perils, {name} - and of the new foe you've discovered. If Kryv is to be believed, this 'Arazzius the Cruel' is as powerful and evil as any foe the Sons of Lothar have ever faced. Will you stand for us now, {name}? Will you face this Legionlord and deliver the Light's justice upon him? If so, you will find him at the Pools of Aggonar. If not, his evil will most certainly find you.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Heart of Darkness
It is just as I feared. Arix'Amal - the demon you killed earlier, was working for a secret Legionlord - Arazzius the Cruel. It appears this new villain has amassed a force of hellish terrorfiends near the Pools of Aggonar.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Fel Orc Scavengers
Scavengers, orcs of the Bonechewer clan, skulk about the ruined battlements overlooking the Path of Glory. We must assume that these fel orcs are gathering war machine parts for their masters within Hellfire Citadel--they must be stopped! Find Bonechewer orcs to the north, <name>.
