If you die while fighting him, the runback is long and a bit confusing. However, on your return, you'll find Kor'Gall still fighting your allies with almost no health. Finish him and continue.
Well, I don't know if the dynamic level patch thingy broke that quest, but it was insanely hard, for me (especially when the others where mind controlled and turned against me). I died multiple times. The third time, my ghost spawned further than before (like, waaaay further), and the time I get back to my corpse, the boss was dead. Luckily I could still loot its body, though, and still got credit.

What to do
Description
Time for vengeance! We are going to kill Kor'gall and you are going to take his axe. Shatter this feeble barrier, follow the bridge beyond until you reach the chieftain's throne. You freed us, so the honor of first blood is yours. Strike the first blow and we will join you in the cutting.

We owe you our freedom, and more. I have spoken to the others, we are willing to return with you to your garrison and teach those pitiful creatures you call "soldiers" how to properly fight. We will also do our best to impart our knowledge to you, Commander.
