If you arrive at Hatred's Vice and there are no NPC's, you likely haven't completed the Jung Duk questline. I spent an hour reloading my UI, disabling add ons and and filing a ticket before I figured this out.
It's too bad the undead forces are gone now otherwise Blizzard might've been able to do some sort of "Burning-bodies-so-the-others-don't-take-them" reference. You know, to keep with the Shado'pan || Night's Watch parallel.

Rewards13g 74s, 4,800 XP
Description
If we are to make camp here, we cannot leave all of these yaungol bodies lying to rot. Take this torch and set fire to the villagers' corpses. The incense from the torch should purify the earth and air around them as well. Even our enemies deserve to be laid to rest.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- In Search of Suna
I have bad news. When I returned, Suna was already gone. The others say that she took her things and headed down the road to the east, muttering about hunting down the source of the yaungol aggression. I cannot allow her to venture into dangerous territory alone.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Slaying the Scavengers
The rotting corpses are attracting hyena scavengers. In addition to spreading diseases from feeding on the dead, the feral creatures will attack us on sight. Go and eradicate the beasts. It is unfortunate, but ultimately for the best.
