You also need to be kneeling (/kneel) or you won't be able to interact with Princess Tess Greymane after her short speech.

I just did this quest set and had issue trying to turn it in ...I had to completely turn off all addons and fully log out of the game down to desktop and restart the game again to finally turn it in at the NPC.

Let Sleeping Wolves LieLevel 50-90
Tess's essence now wanders a section of the Emerald Dream I have twisted into her thoughts. And I have given her my gift, but she could still use a guide. Enter the Dream through the portal behind me. It will place you near where she sleeps. See if you can help show her how rage may blind a mortal.
