This is a "speak with so-and-so" quest. All the NPCs are stationary *except* Sergeant Gorrak who seems to path around the Grookin Mound (at this point in beta). Note that Shademaster Kiryn is sitting down and easy to miss if you don't have nameplates turned on.
Star Trek fans, be sure to read the quest text when you turn this quest in to General Nazgrim. =)

When I read that, first thing I said was, "Welp, good to know ya, Gorrok. That's a 'dies horribly' flag if I ever saw one."
I'm sorry but even zooming in as close as I could, for the life of me I couldn't find his red shirt.

What to do
Description
I recognize all you've managed to do here, {class}. My report to the Warchief will include an account of your deeds. But there's no time to rest! This land must be charted and prepared for Horde settlement. I've already selected an away team to do just that. Find them before they grow comfortable here. Inform them of their mission, and try to convince your new friends to send along one of their own to serve as a guide. You'll be staying here with me. We have preparations to make.
