This quest only showed up for me on my map after I completed the whole Nazmir quest chain even though I did all quests in Zuldazar first. The last quest in Nazmir Halting the Empire's Fall will send you back to Baine in The Great Seal. You then will be able to pick up the quest The Blood Gate. The Blood Gate quest is only a Breadcrumb quest that sends you over to King Rastakhan to pick up this quest. You do NOT need The Blood Gate to pick up this quest though if you are a completionist I suggest turning in Hating the Empire's Fall first.

That is every comment on this page.

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.
