If you cannot complete the last portion of this quest:

1. try logging in and out or
2. teleport to Dalaran, go to the center, take the portal again and redo the scenario, but this time DONT MOVE after Alonsus Faol leaps you

After cleansing the Naaru, an event will start at the front of the order hall. Alonsus Faol will use Leap of Faith on the player.

STAY IN THAT POSITION. Do not leave the position to follow Alonsus Faol. Although there's a chance to succeed if you move, Blizzard seems to have put that Leap of Faith in place for the "take part in the ritual" portion of the quest chain.

I've gone through the beta process with two characters so far, and included logging in and logging out. Staying put after the Leap of Faith seems to have the most success.

Edit: As of Legion live, the leap of faith is still in place for the proper positioning.

Description

Alonsus Faol has been a valuable ally, and his instincts about you have proven true. I believe you are uniquely suited to assist in a matter that will bring a great force of good into this world. I must take you somewhere far from Azeroth to finish a task my people began long ago. Will you aid us?

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.
