So this took me for ever to figure out. Once accepting the rumor, the area in question does not show up on the map until you are in the area. Then you can see it on the mini map. The area in quesiton is at /way 73.09, 50.35 in Rak-Ahat, so just a little north-west from where you accept the rumor up on the platforms. The items do not drop from mobs, they are exclusively looted around the area and appear as yellow dots on your mini map when close enough.
The item you are looting is called [item=219358]Happy hunting!
But where is the loot chest? Where is the treasury? I don't see anything marked on my map for where to go.
Blizzard if we wanted to get a quest with no markers on the map and no clues where to go do the quest we'd be playing Classic.

Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.
