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.
If you are doing this quest at the same time that you got The War Within quest, you won't see Aleria. You will have to complete the other quest first so you can see her and complete this quest.

Description
We are in need of your aid once more, champion. A mysterious figure moves within the shadows. The Harbinger... Let us speak in the Chamber of the Guardian. I've asked Alleria to meet us there as well.

Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Door to the Ren'dorei
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.
