There's a HUGE problem with this quest no one's mentioned: it's warband-wide, but only the character who first picked up the quest will have the quest item needed to do it. This drove me insane because I'd apparently picked it up on an alt and then went to do it on my main and couldn't find any extra action button or quest item in my bags. I abandoned it and picked it up again on the current character and received the quest item.

You do this INSIDE the ritual, not the world as the map shows what looks like the ZA raid . (speaks from experience flying all over what used the be the ZA raid)
The item you need to use for this is in your bags and called Lady Darkglen's Device.

What to do
Description
I have a request. These Ritual Sites invoke some interesting magic. I would like you to obtain some sample readings. You don't need to concern yourself with the details. Just visit the area I will mark on your map and press the button. You may end up garnering some extra attention when you do so.
