Then you head back to Axefall and can pickup Attempted Murder from the npc infront of the tavern.

This NPC only appears if you choose the Tavern.
If you choose the Smugglers Den instead, you'll want to follow the questline that starts with Best Deals Anywhere in order to get the [item=116394].
This is one of the quests in a chain that will grant at it's conclusion an [item=116394] and the toy [item=119001]. This quest is only available if you have built the Brewery (Hearthfire Tavern).
In addition, via this quest line you will get a follower for your garrison - [follower=453.2] (H)/[follower=453.1] (A). This follower is also available from [npc=88635] (H)/[npc=88633] (A) in your garrison for 5000g if you have built a Smuggler's Den and do not intend to change it.
The [item=119001] can only be obtained if you have built the Hearthfire Tavern (Brewery) instead of the Smuggler's Den as your Spires of Arak Outpost. If you have already selected the Smuggler's Den, you must pay 5000g to switch outposts (You can get 1000g back at later, as I've noted at the end of this comment). This can be done by speaking to [npc=81920] (H)/[npc=81929] (A), who will give you the option to pay the fee to switch.
After building the Brewery Outpost, you must complete the following quest line:
HordeAlliance
After this quest line has been completed, you can obtain the quest Not In Your Army (H)/Cleaning House (A), which will grant the [item=119001] toy as a reward.NOTE: Completing No Time to Waste (H)/No Time to Waste (A) grants [item=116394] as a reward. This can be used to purchase blueprints from [npc=85840] (Warspear)/[npc=85849] (Stormshield). You can get blueprints you don't already have instead of purchasing them with gold.
However, if you already have all the blueprints, purchase any of the following blueprints to vendor for 1000g:
- [item=116431] (H)
- [item=107694] (A)
- [item=109254]
- [item=111968]
- [item=111980]
- [item=111986]

Description
Your bartender Lunzul is dying, commander. She's been poisoned and needs an antidote immediately. One of your scouts reported seeing a Shattered Hand orc nearby recently - that's our best bet. There is a small arakkoa camp to the east that sits near a known Shattered Hand encampment. I suggest we start our search there. I've already spoken to your flight master about securing us a flight; every second counts.

Where this quest fits
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Assassin's Mark
Their poison is more powerful than I thought. We need to find the orc responsible for making it. Master assassins always leave their mark somewhere on one of their kills. It's a calling card; a claim to fame in their circles. This was definitely the work of such an assassin.
