I saw this quest on my map, but for some reason, this quest NPC was phased out for me at first. I traveled down to the bottom of the hill below the quest location and the marker finally popped up on my minimap. I ran back up the hill, and Baroness Draka was visible.

Description

{name}. Here we are again, fighting alongside each other to protect the Shadowlands. We're waging a losing war, but we might be able to turn the tide. I need you to seek out some very specific commanders of the Mawsworn forces. In every army, there's good commanders and bad ones. By taking out the good ones, only the bad ones advance, weakening the force as a whole. Our Eyes have brought us the names. Now I just need you to kill them.

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.
