When you finish the quest, you're unable to turn it in within the current raid zone. Instead of waiting for the next week, you can always go into LFR and turn it in there, or any other version of the raid (someone else's lockout, running it on heroic, etc).

just ran this on mythic difficulty picked up 4/4 essences and got one out of cenarius loot chest too though couldnt loot it, also i cant find where to turn the quest in at?

edit: quest turn in is malfurion before you enter the iris, so if you do this on mythic just go into one of the opposite difficulties such as normal or heroic, kill nythendra then talk to malfurion outside the iris plant thing in the middle of the portal lobby and turn in quest.

Description

The darkness of the Nightmare is like a heavy shroud, warping reality and altering the perception of all living things. As areas of the Dream are cleansed, Xavius's hold weakens, and the way to the heart of the Nightmare will be revealed. But there might be a more direct way... my teacher once spoke of a pure power that could illuminate the darkness of the Nightmare, and allow all paths to become clear. But alas, Cenarius is lost....
