If you are wondering how to get down to Ritssyn, you can do it two ways. The easiest is to just jump down. I did it without dying or you can walk all the way around. All mobs are friendly at this point.

I click on him and it says invalid target. Maybe todays patch broke it? I submitted a ticket, awaiting a response. I see that I'm not alone as I see other warlocks hanging around confused as well.
EDIT: BTW this is with 8.1.5, wowhead still says 8.1.0.

Description
It seems that friend has caught the attention of Mephistroth. This is very bad news, as the dreadlord will surely wish to seek revenge for losing his general. Friend will need more than the Dreadscar to stand against him, you will need powerful warlocks such as those who were captured. Calydus thinks the orc still lies in the pit where you were chained. Friend must revive him, and rebuild the council!

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Heart of the Dreadscar
Friend has the artifact! Now Jagganoth does not stand a chance! Quickly, you must go back to Dreadscar Rift! You may still be able to save your friends from Jagganoth's vengeance. If you take the heart of the overlord, his army will be yours to command!
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Path of the Dreadscar
It would seem that where the council has failed, you have found untold success. These Dreadscar should prove powerful allies, but they may not be enough. For now, we must look to rebuild.
