The script and voice acting on these are top tier. The writers and actors killed it, good job y'all.

The first grave you visit is for Strongbo, a character from the comic Pearl of Pandaria which came out during MoP. He was Chen's old friend and Li Li's monk teacher. When Li Li left the island as a child looking for Chen, Bo followed her to bring her home. He sacrificed himself to save her from a fel orc who kidnapped her.
The second grave is for Xiu Li, Li Li's mother who drowned on a fishing trip when she was young. Her death is why Li Li's father was against Li Li going on adventures.

Description

Mr. Crane told me about your success in the other villages. Now that we've found the spirits, we can begin the festivities. But before we go, {name}... will you come with me to the Wood of Staves? I'd love your help gathering flowers while we're there. I hear the woods are still crawling with scamps. It's to see my... family. I'd like to pay them a visit, before the festival. Just for a moment. It's been too long.

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.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

Lost My SparkLevel 50-90
Dafeng led me here, but then he flew away. I think he senses Huo, the spirit of fire, nearby. Why are all the spirits in such a state today? The festival is for them, after all. I was anxious about returning home, but didn't know why.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

Thousands of Years Ago...Level 50-90
The world is changing as we speak. We've been through so much. But it's like time skips this isle. Everything is exactly as I remembered... is that a good thing, <name>? Is it even possible? Even the ancients grow older. Shen-zin Su must be looking for something more, after all this time.
