Only valid when taking over horde graveyards. Neutral once or those "in-conflict" wont suffice.
One of several "scaling" quests which grants more exp as you level up, instead of less.
For example, most quests are red at one point, turn orange, yellow, green and then eventually gray as you outlevel it, and slowly decreasing the amount of exp you earn. This quest starts out yellow, and remains that color no matter what level you are. As such, it grants a gradually increasing amount of exp depending on what level you turn it in which is seemingly based on the amount of exp a "typical" yellow quest at that level would give.
8460 exp @ level 51 with the 20% heirloom exp bonus
8820 exp @ level 52
9120 exp @ level 53

Description
The graveyards in Alterac Valley are prized territories. Both the Horde and the Alliance fight savagely for these sacred grounds. Are you, {name}, ready to join that fight? I want you to assault an enemy graveyard. Find a graveyard with a Horde banner in its midst, and pull it from the ground! Do that, and your task will be complete.... But if you can also hold the graveyard for a few minutes, then our troops will soon come to relieve you.
