TheWoWDBYou will find blue glowing balls (orbs?) hidden in Vol'mar (Lion's Watch for the Alliance). Try looking for them behind trees, buildings, etc.
After found, throw your Reshad's Volatile Concoction and it'll make a Council Nightblade spawn.
Note that if you spot an orb and it disappears before you take action, if you throw the item at the location it will still reveal the enemy.

Description
I need your help. Iskar has gone missing. I have reason to believe he has followed the remnants of the Sethekk who have been gathering here in Tanaan. I've been investigating and... what was that? <Reshad's voice drops to a whisper> There is movement in the shadows, we are being watched! Take these vials, they form a gas with a terrible smell when the liquid comes in contact with the air. Smells terrible, they won't be able to resist it. Use them to drive our watchers out of hiding.

Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Friends Above
Iskar disappeared and now the Shadow Council is at our throats. These can't be unrelated events. We need to go to the last place he was seen, the ruins of Kra'nak. I've asked a friend to set up a camp nearby. I say we head there to continue our search.
