If you're trying to find this in 12.0 to finish up the quest chain:

The starting quest for this on Alliance-side is the Castle Library in Stormwind. It's a scroll. Make sure you have "low level quests" toggled in the Interface section of the options menu to see it, otherwise it WILL NOT appear on your map.

Reward details

Currency: Flightstones x 5

Earned from completing world quests, raids, dungeons, battlegrounds, arena matches, and other activities. Used to upgrade max-level gear.

Item facts are the current retail client’s (ItemSparse); the specialisations for a pick-one item are the ones the Blizzard quest API lists; faction and currency text is the client’s own. Lowest listed price = the US commodity auction house now.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

    If this investigation involves the Void, it would be wise to consult the void elves. We must head to Telogrus Rift and report the situation. I'll speak with Umbric. He'll be able to mobilize the Riftwalkers to our cause.
