If you somehow skipped part of the Broken Shore questline then Deadwind Pass will be out of phase for you and you won't be able to complete this quest. It took me a little wandering around to figure this out.

Description
In my previous confrontation with your foe, I was able to see a glimpse into their past. Granted blessed vision by the Cloak of Purity, I saw the Dark Riders for who they once were. Come, we must go to Ariden's Camp in Deadwind Pass. I can explain its significance along the way.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Foe of the Dark
I cannot believe the Dark Riders found us here. Long have they hunted the scythe to sate their lust for the artifacts of Azeroth. We thought we would be protected within the grove... And now, Valorn is gone... You must become the hunter, <name>. Seek the Dark Riders and recover the scythe.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Disturbing the Past
This place is where the merchant, Ariden, set up camp while he was trying to ply his dubious wares to the sorcerer Medivh. It has remained strangely untouched for all this time, which leads me to believe it may still have a connection to its former owner. Help me search the camp.
