TheWoWDBThe Dreamway is a path through the Emerald Dream that allows druids to go from the Dreamgrove, our class hall in Val'sharah, to many different natural locations across the world:
Twilight Grove, Duskwood
Dream Bough, Feralas
Ursoc's Den, Grizzly Hills
Seradane, The Hinterlands
Stormrage Barrow Dens, Moonglade
Nordrassil, Mount Hyjal
The Dreamgrove, Val'sharahIf you completed the quest Sealing the Dream the portal to Feralas will initially be blocked and you'll have to undo the seal you placed on it back then to use it. A cool little detail that I really like.
The Emerald Dream is the blueprint the Titans made while shaping Azeroth. It is a mirror of Azeroth without the influence of sentient lifeforms where nature flourishes. The druids and green dragons have protected this place for millennia, but it has fallen under the threat of the Nightmare, created by the Old Gods and led by the satyr Xavius.

I'm slightly confused. Surely if the other old Nightmare portal locations are used as Dreamway portal exits, Bough Shadow in Ashenvale should be on there as well. Unless Blizzard plans to implement it in a patch, or do something special with that location, I think it may just be an oversight, especially considering the other three places don't have as strong a connection to the story of the Emerald Dream
If you are looking to use Emerald Dreamway as a short cut to get to Stormwind, you want to use the Mount Hyjal portal. Once you zone in, go to the Inn across the lake from you and the Stormwind portal is located near the front door to the Inn, opposite of the lake.
If you can't get the Mount Hyjal portal in Emerald Dreamway to work, and you boosted your character to max level, then you need to complete your class intro quest in Dalaran. You may as well get your Dalaran Hearthstone at the same time, and to do this you go to the Hero's Call Board in Stormwind and pick the one for Legion. When doing this quest, just click the option for "Skip this story, I've heard it before" and when you turn in the quest in Dalaran, you'll get your Dalaran Hearthstone.

The opening lines of the quests the game marks on this map, in the quest giver's own words, from Blizzard's quest data.
- A Dying Dream: “Deep in the heart of the swamp lies an ancient protector of the Dreamway, Witherheart. He was among the first defenders to battle against the Nightmare, but he has fallen to total corruption.”
- Cleaning Up: “When the Nightmare spreads, it consumes the life force of all that it touches. The more it spreads, the weaker our magic becomes.”

- Eye of Azshara: Essence of Balance: “Within the Eye of Azshara in Azsuna, a powerful being known as the Wrath of Azshara grows in strength.”
- Halls of Valor: Essence of Ferocity: “To find the essence of ferocity, you must seek a creature who has slain thousands, and is revered by even the gods.”
- Neltharion's Lair: Essence of Tenacity: “Greetings, Archdruid. I hear that you seek the essence of tenacity. There is none more unyielding and unbreakable than a creature of stone.”
