When you kill Lycanthoth, do not move. Don't mount up or leave the cave. The spirit of Goldrinn will spawn and you can turn in the quest where a cutscene will pop up.

What to do
Description
The actions of these feral dogs are beginning to make sense. The Twilight's Hammer fears the power of the ancients. They do not want Lo'Gosh to return. So they've summoned their own wolf god - a perversion of what once was. "Lycanthoth," the corruptor. {name}, Lycanthoth is but a shadow of Lo'Gosh's power, but the beast must be destroyed so that the true ancient can return. Take this incense, and burn it in the Maw of Lycanthoth east of here. Slay the monstrosity and free the spirit of Lo'Gosh!

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Howling Mad
The shrine has been taken, <name>. We need the tenacity of Lo'Gosh now more than ever. These defilers - the lice-ridden wolf-men running rampant over the shrine - dishonor the memory of the wolf god. They arrived with the Twilight's Hammer, howling with their own twisted religion.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Eye of Twilight
The ogre clan across the lake is led by Gar'gol. I use the term loosely; Gar'gol has the intelligence of raw beef. So far as I can tell, Gar'gol is taking orders from a magical instrument: "The Eye of Twilight." He follows its commands unquestioningly.
