I tried it today, 2/6/15, and couldn't find the item until I saw the map cords which helped. The quest item looks like an empty flour sack on the ground right at the entrance to the last stall. It doesn't sparkle like it should
Tried doing this today RavenCrest EU - 06/08-2011.
And i cant pick up the quest item.
Its bugged.Made a ticket but no answer yet.

What to do
Description
If you're that serious about this, I'll help you, {name}. I know where the other documents must be. I'm just too terrified to do anything about it. There's only a few places that those horrible Nightbane beasts gather when they're not prowling the forest. One of them's the Rotting Orchard to the south. They use the buildings there as their dens, so if they haven't just eaten the other documents, you might find one there... but you'll have to search their lairs thoroughly, I wager.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Stolen Letters
You want to know about Stalvan... You're not the first, you know. We get outsiders coming through asking about him every so often. Always outsiders. Everyone who lives here knows better. You're out of luck, anyway. I'm missing half the archives.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Roland's Doom
This isn't all of it... You should let it go, <name>. The only place left to look is Roland's Doom. That's the mine south of town, and the largest lair of worgen in Duskwood. Nobody in Darkshire has ever made it back from that place alive.
