If the naga want to throw in their lot with the Twilight's Hammer, then may Elune have mercy on them.
Go into their lair in the island of Nazj'vel and find their leader, the naga warlord known only as Wrathspine.
Perhaps the horn of the ancients can still be saved.

Warlord Wrathspine is located in the cave on the island. He's at the bottom of the cave. Once you kill him, another quest is given which is The Offering to Azshara.
To complete this quest, go out of the cave, to the top of the island and slay the four priestesses there.
After, Queen Azshara will appear along with Malfurion Stormrage. You turn in the quest to Malfurion and he subsequently gives you another quest entitled The Battle for Darkshore. To accept the quest, you must have room in your inventory. If you don't, like I did the first time, clear out a spot and wait until the priestesses re-spawn and kill them. You'll have to listen to Azshara and Stormrage again, but you'll be able to pick up the quest.
The ramp up to the cave is at [34.4, 83.9].
This is an Alliance Only quest.

The creature appears to have had its skull broken in a fight with Aros. It looks like what you've heard described as a naga before. It is said that despite their monstrous features, naga are night elves warped by the arcane magic of Queen Azshara.
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
The warlord said the horn of the ancients was being offered to Azshara above Nazj'vel. Perhaps it's not too late to save the ancient relic from being destroyed.
