If you’re staring at the buy window trying to figure out where to find the vial, don’t worry she’s about to send you to find it.
Caught me out just now too, it's worded badly and i ended up actually reading the quest and going to Vokgret before I come to wowhead to read this. Thank you.

Description
If we're to solve this quarrel between Steelvein and Ardgrin amicably, then we'll need to make some new friends. One of Ardgrin's employees, Obstorn, frequents a cinderbrew speakeasy here in Dornogal. Only Machine Speakers may enter it. Even as Councilward, I am not able to access it. However, there are others in the city who can. Bevrusi, a Gundargaz trader, should be able to give you access. If you can grease her palm, she may be able to supply you access.
Where to go

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Dornogal's Benefactor
You are in a unique position, <name>. A position to learn. You met those who would bring this "Bender of Edicts" to justice, but what of the people of Dornogal? What do the earthen think of this Steelvein fellow? Humor me.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Market Reeve of the Forgegrounds
I've heard liquid opal tastes remarkable but no matter how often I peruse the auctions here, it's never for sale. It's quite rare. Luckily for you, there is one person who can find the stuff. Vokgret, the market reeve of the Forgegrounds.
