Kinda hilarious when you're a paladin for the class. "We already have two paladins, but we sure could use another!"

Could this be a Lord of the Rings reference? An elf and a dwarf fighting about how many they've killed?
The following conversation occurs between the 3 NPCs while you are on the ride to Crown Guard Tower from Thondroril River.
Tarenar Sunstrike says: Shotgun!
Gidwin Goldbraids says: Hey now! Why do you get to sit in front?
Tarenar Sunstrike says: Because I won our bet. And because I called shotgun.
Gidwin Goldbraids says: Who says you won the bet? We haven't compared tallies yet.
Tarenar Sunstrike says: Fine. I killed five zombies. And they were huge. How many undead did you kill?
Gidwin Goldbraids says: I'm pretty sure I killed six.
Tarenar Sunstrike says: I'm going to bet that you only killed four.
Gidwin Goldbraids says: H... how did you know that?
Tarenar Sunstrike says: I didn't. You just told me!
Tarenar Sunstrike says: So seriously, how did your undead hunting go? I want to hear stories.
Tarenar Sunstrike says: Gidwin? Are you ignoring me?
Tarenar Sunstrike says: Giddy... you're mad at me, aren't you?
Tarenar Sunstrike says: Remember when we were kids, Gidwin? We would spend all day pretending to fight the trolls, or the murlocs, or the girls.
Gidwin Goldbraids says: Don't do this, Tarenar.
Tarenar Sunstrike says: We had a name we called ourselves... what was it?
Gidwin Goldbraids says: You remember damn well enough what it was.
Tarenar Sunstrike says: I'm dead serious. I've completely forgotten.
Gidwin Goldbraids says: <Sigh>... "The Paladin Pals".
Fiona says: Gidwin, you can sit in front with me next time.
Gidwin Goldbraids says: Maybe now I don't want to. Maybe I like it better sitting back here with my new friend. It smells like horses up there.
Fiona says: There's a tower coming up on our left. What do you say we stop and rest a bit?
Gidwin Goldbraids says: We just rested a few minutes ago! Let's just go to Light's Hope Chapel!
Fiona says: The roads here are rough, Gidwin. I don't want to risk losing a horse.
Gidwin Goldbraids says: We won't lose a horse. Look at them! They look exactly like they did when we started.
Tarenar Sunstrike says: Actually, I agree with Fiona.
Tarenar Sunstrike says: The Argent Crusade can wait for us a little while longer. Besides... our guest may want to get off the caravan soon.
Fiona says: Here we are!

What to do
Description
Now that the boys are back, we can head out. You headed east? Please, join us! I insist! Yesterday, we were in the Menders' Stead, and I was telling Tarenar, "We have two paladins and a shopkeeper, but you know what we really need? A {class}!" Don't look at me that way! I'm serious! Come on, hop in the cart.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Gift For Fiona
My traveling companion, Fiona, runs a small vendor's shop out of her caravan. She and I, along with our friend Gidwin, are all on our way to Light's Hope Chapel. I'm sure you can join us, if you like... though Fiona might be a little mad at me.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Traveling Companions
While we're waiting here at this tower, we might as well see if anybody else is headed to Light's Hope Chapel. The more, the merrier, I say! Ask around to see if anybody wants to join us on our trip. I'm sure you can find somebody who's headed to Light's Hope.
