If you can't see Thrall, go to the top right of the map, near the V of "Valor's Rest" and speak to Zidormi to change to the current timeline.
There is also a "dialog" icon on your map near the location of the NPC.

You can skip the intro quest and skip the Harbringer quest on Alts if you completed them once on your main.
1. Open your Adventure Guide (default bound to Shift + J).
2. Click the tab for Suggested Content
3. Click "Accept Quest" for The War Within. (Might have to use left/right arrows if the quest is not the first one.)
3. Use the Teleporation Scroll. (If you don't see Thrall, follow the other tip in the comments about Zidormi.)
4. Turn in the Quest.
5. Accept the next Quest Thrall offers.
5. Click the "I have heard this tale before" to Skip the Dalaran Introduction and travel to Dornogal.
6. It will teleport you to Dornogal.I tested this on multiple newly 70 Timewalking characters that had not done a single other quest.
Found a trick that works every time for those experiencing the bug.
Accept the quest, teleport to Silithus. It freezes you, the NPCs disappear.
As was mentioned previously, head to "Valor's Rest" and speak to Zidormi. On your way to Valor's Rest, BEFORE you speak to Zidormi, open your Adventure Guide, the quest "The War Within" will be there. Accept it. Now, change timelines to before the events. Then, switch back to the current time line. Use the scroll to teleport back again. You will not be frozen again, and the NPC will appear and talk to you now.
I has had a 100% success rate for all my alts stuck in the the time frame.

Description
There is a vision being seen across Azeroth. A "Radiant Song." We believe it's a warning, but we are unsure of its meaning. Meet me in Silithus. We must ask Azeroth's Speaker what this vision means.
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.

Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Poor Reception
There's strong evidence that the Radiant Song is a warning from Azeroth herself. A cry for help. That's why we're here. If this vision truly is Azeroth's message, Magni will know what she's trying to tell us. He should be in the Chamber of the Heart. Let's go.
