To start the Oribos quest, you can head to the portal room of Orgrimmar or Stormwind and teleport directly to Oribos, but this requires you to have access to the Shadowlands already, or you can manually play through The Maw with a level 48+ character and get to Oribos. The level requirement for the Bastion starting quest, Seek the Ascended, is level 51, so if your character is below that level, you will need to gain more levels elsewhere until your character is able to pick up the quest.
