You need to talk to Lord Herne. He is just east of the command table.
If you're doing the Campaign Quest for the Nightfae you can find him at 47, 73 in a small cave.

Description
In my youth, I was mentored by a wise and powerful Thornspeaker named Kivarr. She passed from this world long ago, but her soul may yet rest within the Shadowlands. Kivarr's knowledge is ancient and vast, far eclipsing my own. She may be able to offer you the guidance that I cannot. Seek her out. Deliver the fetish to her. She will know what to do. May the wind be your guide.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Into the Flame
I know the curse of which you speak. Dark magic that possesses the mind of the afflicted. Long ago, the Drust were ruled by a sorcerer king named Gorak Tul. It was he who twisted our rituals and set us on the path of death and domination.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Kivarr's Den
Kivarr... I have not heard that name in many an age. She used to make her home near Eventide Grove to the south. Ara'lon knows the area well. I suggest you take him with you. I fear that the situation with Gweyir weighs heavily upon him. Perhaps joining you on the hunt will do him some good.
The storyline at a glance
Drust to Drust has 17 steps, from The Fate of Ara'lon to Unbroken Bonds.
