For some reason I dont see the quest. It said to come to Stromwind Embassy if you didnt do the welcoming intro to Mechagon. But the quest isnt here. Really weird.
Take this quest if you never opened up Mechagon Island. This and Urgent Care are the 2 you need to unlock Mechagnomes.

I came as soon as I heard! A mysterious vault has been discovered in Tiragarde. Centuries ago, the last king of the gnomes, King Mechagon, led his followers in search of a mythical land of technology. He left no clue as to where he was headed, and over time his legend faded into history.
