[The Cipher of Damnation] is indeed a powerful incantation. Ancient and chaotic, the cipher itself has been responsible for many tragedies in the history of our worlds. That is to say, it is not unique to Draenor.
The burning symbol you saw was the mark of Kael'Thas. His knowledge of the ancient words explains much.
Your discovery has roused the naaru. A'dal has requested your presence in Shattrath City. Should you choose to come, seek me out at the Terrace of Light.
Humbly Yours,
