If this quest is not showing up for you at max level in Dragonflight, make sure that you do not have the Harbinger quest. For some reason, it will stop this quest from appearing. Either drop the Harbinger quest or complete it and you should be able to get this quest.
I tried everything, and finally after dropping it, the quest popped up automatically within about 1 minute.

So, pretty sure this quest is currently unobtainable because of the TWW pre-patch event. The questmarker is on my map and seems to be in the same area as the eventhub, but there is no way to into the correct instance to obtain the quest.
This is interesting. I have a Death Knight who never turned in the quest to join the Horde, which blocked me from talking to the NPC outside Orgrimmar who initiates the Legion campaign. I played the expansion without an artifact or a class hall as a result. Now I've come back for Battle for Azeroth and this quest automatically popped.

Description
<A chilling thought brushes your mind.> Hear me, {name}. The Legion has returned. They hope to control us, to bend us to their will. Fools - they only walk back within reach of our blades. Your brethren within Dalaran have begun to gather at Krasus' Landing. Go, meet with Duke Lankral and all will be explained.
