Turn in is at 44.9, 64. Took me forever to find the Rangari after she moved and Wowhead doesn't have the right coords. You turn this in at the same place you turn in Seedbearers of Bad News.
That is every comment on this page.

Welcome to the front lines, commander, where the wastelands and the jungle collide. The battle below rages on, but I believe one side is beginning to overwhelm the other. This cannot be allowed to happen. The gronnlings are gaining an upper hand and must be stopped before they pose a threat to Highpass. I will get closer to the battle while you thin their ranks. Meet me within Affliction Ridge when you are done.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Seedbearers of Bad News
When these seedbearers are slain their seeds survive. From them spring new seedbearers, not over years, but hours. Leaving their remains here would soon cause the outpost to be overrun. We have learned that burning their remains prevents this from happening.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- We Have Company
Commander, I've spotted Iron Horde soldiers nearby. It is bold, even for them, to venture into such deadly territory. If we do not deal with their presence, they will surely be a threat to your camp. While I scout deeper into the canyons, may I request your help in investigating the camp?
