If you take too long to pick up the Resored Quel'Delar (when the little "event" has taken place and you can once again move) you don't have to panic (as I did and rushed for the GM ticket). What you do is very simple. Go back out to Halduron Brightwing, abandon the quest, and re-take it. You'll get to see the little chat again in Sunwell, and then you've learnt from your previous misstake and pick the restored sword up before it disappears again.

At this point you will want to talk to one of the guards outside of Sunwell called Warden of the Sunwell. DO NOT just go into Sunwell. Talking to the guard transports you into a solo version of Sunwell Plateau with all green NPC's. They will not attack you and you won't need to get a raid together in order to complete this. After a brief encounter (no combat involved) with the NPC's around the sunwell you will get your Restored Quel'Delar and your mace will be practically in hand. Enjoy!
wel this is the encounter you wil sie
Randomly, Liadrin makes a statement to some gathered Pilgrims:
Lady Liadrin says: My brothers and sisters, words cannot describe what I felt upon seeing the Sunwell rekindled.
Lady Liadrin says: In that moment, the Light revealed to me the truth of the terrible things I had done.
Lady Liadrin says: Our people had walked a dark path and miine was among the darkest of them all.
Lady Liadrin says: But the Light showed me that I was not lost. It helped me to find the strength to survive in spite of all that had happened and all the evil I had wrought.
Lady Liadrin says: It is a strength that we sin'dorei all share. It is a strength we will need to free ourselves of the addiction ravaging our people.
Lady Liadrin says: It will be the most difficult battle we have ever faced, but our resolve and the power of the Sunwell will sustain us until we have been restored to our greatness.
Blood Elf Pilgrim says: Well said, my lady. We sin'dorei will be free and we shall be great again!
Upon throwing in the sword on the southeast side of the Sunwell:
Sunwell Honor Guard says: Can that really be Quel'Delar?
Lor'themar Theron says: We shall see.
Grand Magister Rommath says: Look at it, Lor'themar. It is certainly Quel'Delar.
Lor'themar Theron says: So it is. You have my thanks, <name>, for restoring
Quel'Delar to its rightful owners.
Theron walks up to the blade and grabs it. He is thrown across the room by the blade, knocking him to roughly half-health.
Sunwell Honor Guard yells: My Lord Regent! What have they done to you?
Rommath freezes the player in an Icy Prison and guards approach from all directions.
Grand Magister Rommath says: What is the meaning of this treachery?
Sunwell Honor Guard says: Drop your weapon and surrender, traitor.
Captain Auric Sunchaser says: This is not my doing, Rommath. There is no treachery here.
Captain Auric Sunchaser says: Call off your men. Lor'themar's own foolishness caused his injuries. Quel'Delar is not chosen; it chooses its master.
Grand Magister Rommath says: It seems the captain is correct. Quel'Delar is not to be ours after all.
Grand Magister Rommath says: Guards, return to your posts.
The Icy Prison fades
Grand Magister Rommath says: You will have what you have come for, <name>. Take the sword and begone. And you, Auric, have a care for what you say in this sacred place.
Captain Auric Sunchaser says: Carry the sword back to Dalaran through that portal, <name>. You have done what many quel'dorei have dreamt of for years. Quel'Delar has been restored at last.

Description
I admit, I was skeptical that you had actually re-forged Quel'Delar and I did not expect Thalorien's spirit to reveal itself to you. You cannot understand what it means to my people that Quel'Delar has been recovered. As promised, I will admit you to the Sunwell and you will find the leaders of Silvermoon within. Carry the sword to the chamber of the Sunwell and immerse it. Once the blade is restored, return with it to Caladis Brightspear at Quel'Delar's Rest.
