TheWoWDBThis is the start of Druid Classhall campaign Chapter 2, Idol of the Wilds.
Looked on several guide steps but couldn't find where to pick up the first breadcrumb, but found this quest as a standard ! on the big zonemap and looked it up.
This quest should be added to the campaign chain.

Description
Most of the druids were able to escape, but the shrine is still swarming with enemies. The shrine's leader, Sylendra Gladesong, stayed behind to recover Malorne's Idol. We must go back and help her.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Malorne's Refuge
I see... it is as we have always feared. The Emerald Nightmare has found our world. We must call upon the ancient god, Malorne. Travel southeast to the shrine at Malorne's Refuge. There, we druids have kept a sacred relic for thousands of years, a gift from the white stag himself.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Tracking the Enemy
The Idol may be stolen, but there is still hope. While I was trapped at the shrine, I saw the satyr raiders make off with the relic. Their tracks will still be fresh. With our heightened senses, we may still be able to pick up their trail.
