TheWoWDBThis quest will show up on your minimap in the BfA expansion (in the warfront) if you have "trivial quests" option enabled on map. However, there will be no quest giver in the zone. Don't waste your time like I did.

FYI if there are a lot of players in the valley area here, the mobs you need are also up on the ridge line surrounding the valley too.
I was thinking First Blood, also known as Rambo.

Description
Be prepared, {name}. You will cast the first blood upon this land for us. The Syndicate, as they call themselves, are cowardly humans who betray even their own kind. Their isolation will make them easy prey. Travel north, slay any Syndicate members you find, and claim Northfold Manor in the name of the Forsaken. Bring me the Bloodstone Amulets they wear as proof of your conquest.

Let me tell you a story. Once, there was a foolish troll named Zengu. He was tasked to find the sword Trol'kalar, the legendary blade of the human Trollbane line. He succeeded, and thinking his task done, went to leave Arathi by himself.
