TheWoWDBThe little white target circle on the minimap indicates they are directly behind the tower. You have to go DOWN the hill behind the tower and into the cave - the mobs are all in there.

Description
When I reached for the Flame, I felt the overwhelming hopelessness and despair that had been poured into it. It pains me, but... my light alone is not enough to banish these shadows. And so, we take a more direct path. If the remaining cultists have withdrawn to Gloomcrag Bower, their combined power must be what's keeping the Flame dark. We must stop them before this darkness spreads.
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.
- The Darkened Flame
This... Order of Night, as they call themselves, did some foul ritual to turn the tower's flame to darkness. I know not what. We should investigate.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Final Resistance
<Faerin speaks in a hushed, furious whisper.> Good work. But before we can leave, there's something else. Down this way are some powerful priests. I think they are summoning something-- something big. No doubt to strike at us above and drive us from the tower itself.
