35, 42 on the road seems to be as far south as he goes. He turned back towards me at that spot twice when I was approaching from north, and then continued pathing north after I finished talking

What to do
Description
There's nothing here that would explain why the spirits of these arakkoa have remained in this world or how they came into thirst for the blood of orcs. I think our best lead is to try to find the deserter mentioned in the journal. If he left his comrades at the camp, there's a chance you might be able to persuade him to help us understand what the dark conclave arakkoa are planning. Start your search for him on the road through the Magma Fields to the southeast.
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 Sketh'lon Wreckage
The Sketh'lon Wreckage, just to the east, is an eerie place. The peons are convinced that it's cursed. There are few trees here, so the peons have no choice but to venture into the arakkoa ruins to chop wood.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Asghar's Totem
What you read in the commander's journal is true. While the orcish Horde massed under Gul'dan, my people sought to defend ourselves from the threat by striking against him. Gul'dan learned of their intentions and cast a mighty spell that destroyed our camps and twisted the spirits of my brothers.
