What did you expect? Lore-wise, both Onyxia and Nefarian are dead, and Deathwing is M.I.A. "Oh hey, thanks for killing off the leaders of my brood earlier. Have five thousand gold."

For this quest what you would want to do (especially if you can fly) is pass over Obsidian Dragonshrine and look down below for a cave entrance that is sticking out near the ground. You will fight a few getting into the cave, but once inside stick to the right and you will find Serinar at the top of path near the lava pit. The coordinates on the other postings here are not accurate anymore. 37.8 and 31.9 are the coordinate for the entrance to the cave.
If you can't fly down there, there is pathway that leads into Obsidian Dragonshrine at 36.9 / 36.2 which is up along a snowy path heading north into Dragonshrine.
Just another tip, once you are close enough into Dragonshrine you will notice the cave easily - it is an open Dragon's Mouth and very large sticking out along the ground.

Even for a dragon i am distrubed by how thrifty this quest giver is, considering that, unliike other quest givers of her level, she will only reward you with a meek 56 silver for completing her tasks.
Cheap bitch.

Description

The Scourge come. Korialstrasz calls upon his allies in a futile attempt to save their Ruby Dragonshrine, but it seems the good graces of the red flight don't extend to saving the shrines of the other flights. Surprised? I'm not. There is another of my brood who has left to clear our Obsidian Dragonshrine of the undead vermin that now infest it. All it would take to prove yourself more noble and righteous than Alexstrasza herself is a quick jaunt over there and a few swings of a blade. I'm amused.
