There is a ledge up above the main room. As you leave the room where Duarn is trying to communicate with Nespirah, it's to the left and gradually goes up. An entire set of quests takes place up there, as well.

Description

<Duarn closes his eyes, pauses, and nods.> Nespirah has just informed me that we are not the only people fighting inside of this shell. A small group of Alliance slaves has escaped and is currently fighting off the naga on the other side of the shell, up on the ledge that overlooks Nespirah's heart. Go find them, {name}, and see what help they can lend us. With their aid, we may be able to rouse Nespirah from her torpor. I will remain here, should you need anything.

  • Hopelessly GearlessShimmering Expanse · Level 30-35

    I honestly don't know how we've survived this long. The naga took my armor and weapons, and left me with rags and a mining pick... and THAT snapped in half long ago. If we're to stand any hope of turning the tide, I'm going to need something to fight with...
