This appears to be bugged for Horde users right now. The feather is actually located on a hill right above the Frostcave, but will phase out if not clicked quickly. If you're just right with your approach and have max mount speed, it's possible to land and loot before it phases out, but difficult. Again, this seems to be a Horde-only issue.As Bloodys pointed out in comments, getting invited by someone who has no garrison/shipyard, and them syncing seems to be the best workaround until a hotfix is deployed.

This is all in Draenor, so if you're like me and can't find it in Outland Nagrand... DOH!
Happy hunting!

Description
I've told many tales in my days, but my companion Percy has a tale of his own to tell. Would you care to learn about it? I will give you a clue on where to start. From there, you must find the clues that Percy has left behind to discover his story. You can have this feather that Percy left behind as well. Look closely and you may find more clues. Perhaps a bird of your own may help you on your journey.
