TheWoWDBIf like me, you completed A Way Home and then left Nazjatar only to come back later to find no follow on quests, read on.
The next quest in the Nazjatar campaign Scouting the Palace, is gated behind the quest Essential Empowerment that you picked up from [npc=154166] to go and speak to Mother.
If like me you abandoned the quest, thinking it wasn't relevant to Nazjatar, you are mistaken.
You will need to follow through with completing the short questline with Mother, to be able to then come back to Nazjatar to continue the quests with [npc=150101].
Once you've done that you will be able to continue to unlock the remainder of the Nazjatar quests with [npc=150101], beginning with Scouting the Palace.

Don't be like me and disenchant the reward from this quest. You need it for the next quest: Create Your Own Strength. Had to use an item restore to get it back.
For those like me trying to figure out what pieces to buy for alts, this quest rewards a choice of hands, legs, or feet.

Description
We cannot hide here forever, {name}. Azshara must be dealt with. It would be an act of folly to assault her palace without knowing what defenses she has in place. I dispatched a scouting team while you were gone, but they have not reported back. I'm getting concerned, {name}. Let me know when you're ready and I'll perform a ritual to see what has happened to our scouts.
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.
- A Way Home
We are only alive thanks to the ankoan and Azshara's desire to toy with us. We will learn more of Okani's people in the times ahead, I am sure. For now, we must establish a portal home.
After this quest
Taken from a quest that requires this one.
- The Lost Shaman
Pardon me, <class>. I am in need of your assistance. Our shaman, Farseer Ori, left the camp some days ago to investigate a nearby disturbance in the elements. He took his apprentice with him, a young initiate named Odari. Neither have returned.
