The quests for Emerald King, Royal Decree and Unseen Rival appear only during post-game but The Heart of Darkness can appear during both normal game and post-game. You can try and get to post-game and see if the quest showed up, if not, try doing all the remaining quests and then see again if the quest showed up. In case it doesn't show even if you completed all the other quests you don't have another choice but to start a new game+ again and repeat the same process to the see if the quest shows up this time, if not, it might be a glitch or something.

You can get easy dragonforging if you kill the dragons that appear on Bitterblack Isle instead of waiting to go to beat Grigori.
