The Arrakoa race, their capital and this questline is a reference to Jim Henson's awesome film The Dark Crystal. ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Dark_Crystal )
Darkstone = Dark Crystal
Skettis = Skesisetc.
I have always loved that movie since I was little; subsequently the Arrakoa are one of my favorite new races in the Burning Crusade. I keep looking around for more subtle references to the film that are hidden within the quests and Arrakoa villages.
Just a little bit of trivia for you all. :)
It's the floating stone in the center of the village.

Description
Veil Skith lies to the northwest of the caravan and to the south of Shattrath in a secluded grove of the forest. It is rumored that the colony of Skettis has constructed a maligned altar of worship. This Darkstone of Terokk must be purified if the arakkoa of Skith are ever to be redeemed. Take this Rod of Purification and cast it upon the Darkstone. Blessed by A'dal, the rod's purity might be enough to bring clarity to the Darkstone. Go now and may the light shine upon thee.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Seek Out Kirrik
Other arakkoa took part in the betrayal of Terokk. Kirrik recognized Terokk as a charlatan, not a prophet. The only prophecy Terokk envisioned was the doom borne of his own bidding. It was Kirrik who led us bravely from Skettis.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Veil Rhaze: Unliving Evil
Veil Rhaze was a particularly wicked colony of Skettis. Despite the village's eradication by the Auchindoun disaster, Terokk's influence remained in the maligned spirits there. Travel west to Veil Rhaze and slay those murderous wretches.
