With the destruction of Theramore in 5.0.5, Aden can no longer be found where the quest marker points.

If you want to complete this quest you have to visit [npc=63546] who is just down the new bridge from Theramore. She will let you see Theramore as it was before the destruction... In other words you can complete Dustwallow Marsh Quests :D
