It might be worth noting that I could not use the Technoscryers after I completed the quest, so make sure you do it before you finish!

As the world quest of a similar name does not yet have its own entry, I shall put a note here.

If the quest list doesn't give you a button to turn on the goggles then you can bring up the scrying mode via the chat command:
/use technoscryersYou do not have to have the goggles in your bag, or even own them at all (i destroyed mine long ago).

Description
I tuned my various sensors for Dracthyr relics, and they've triangulated a new location for us to investigate off the eastern coast of the Forbidden Reach. The local Drakonid tell me it's named Dragonskull Island. Ominous, no? You're not easily frightened, are you?

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Taste of the Past
Usually, we go to great lengths to avoid busting artifacts open, but I think in this case we'll learn more about the past from what's inside than just staring at a sealed barrel. That said, there's someone we should get permission from first. It's her history, after all.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Fate of Scalecommander Abereth
According to our colleagues, this cave was used to test prospective scalecommanders. Excuse me. It either tested them or housed their remains. The trials were so difficult that it usually amounted to the same thing.
