TheWoWDBAfter clicking <Ask Khadgar what happened.> my screen freezes for a few seconds, then the message, "This cinematic is not available" appears. The quest is completed and I can continue, but I'd love to see the cinematic. =\
(note: all addons are disabled, game updates checked for, client rebooted)
UPDATE: It eventually worked. I abandoned the quest instead of turning it in and tried every few minutes; likely high server load or something. Full cinematic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NcKg4bR8dpQ

Description
Hello, {name}. It's been a while, and I wish we had more time to catch up. But you see, I've just had a rather enlightening... no, make that foreboding... yes, a foreboding conversation with an old friend. Sometimes a revelation can be both, after all. I really must tell you of what I've learned.
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.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Dark Talons
Naleidea is enthusiastic, but she's a historian, not a soldier. She knows nothing of the dangers we'll face in the Dragon Isles. Not that anyone needs to worry. After all, the Dark Talons will be protecting the expedition. I'm going to discuss mission logistics with Ebyssian and your Horde leaders.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Chasing Storms
Well, that wizard certainly knows how to make an entrance, doesn't he? We won't be able to set sail until someone gets those elemental storms under control. Check-in with Storm Huntress Suhrakka.
