The quest to attain Shadowmourne starts with Darion Mograine. The quest is The Sacred and the Corrupt – Quest – World of Warcraft . To start this quest you must first be friendly with the new Icecrown Citadel faction, the Ashen Verdict. You get Ashen Virdict rep from quests, trash kills, and boss kills in ICC and the three 5 man dungeons. All quests from here on must be done in 25 man ICC.

To complete this quest you must:

Gain twenty-five Primordial Saronite – Item – World of Warcraft Which is the new Crusader Orb of 3.3, it can drop off bosses in ICC, or bought with Emblems of Frost, the Emblem of Triumph of ICC. Your best bet is to purchase these from people and buy them yourself with alts by doing ICC 25/10 and the Randomly daily dungeon and the new weekly raid quest to gain Emblems of Frost.

Next you get the quest item Light’s Vengeance – Item – World of Warcraft Which is found in Frostmourne Cavern in Dragonblight.

Next up you must gain quest items off two bosses in ICC Festergut’s Acidic Blood – Item – World of Warcraft and Rotface’s Acidic Blood – Item – World of Warcraft . Blizzard has stated that the wing of ICC which these bosses are found in will open a couple weeks after 3.3 is released (link to that post here: World of Warcraft – English (NA) Forums -> Icecrown Citadel Raid Access Progression )

After you attain all these items, you go back to Darion Mograine and turn them in, and you will be rewarded with Shadow’s Edge http://img175.imageshack.us/img175/7839/shadowsedge.jpg

Once you have Shadow’s Edge the real fun begins!
