First kill Twilight Spearwarders for Twilight Caravan Key, then use the key on the box in the caravan at 25, 38 for Twilight's Hammer Gatestone
Can anybody tell me how to start this quest, more specifically what quests lead to this. From the information it starts from the npc, "Patch," but when I flew over the area last night I didn't see a quest or this npc, although being a goblin I might have missed him, but that doesn't explain why I didn't see the quest on the minimap. So, what quest do I have to do to unlock this quest/npc?

What to do
Description
The gates further down the canyon are shut. Our scouting revealed some kind of stone that they carry in chests in their caravans that they use to open the gates. Get down there and look for a chest key on the bodies of the guards. When you find it, use it on one of those chests on the caravan wagons and bring the gatestone back to me.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Easy Pickings
The ambush launched smoothly. Most of the guards are dead, but a few are still pinned down with the wagons. You can see them just to our west, in the canyon below. Get in there and clear them out so we can get this attack on the move.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Gates of Grim Batol
Kroggs started the assault to push up the canyon. He's just past the gate to our southeast. I'm going to get the squad together to join the attack. We'll meet you down there.
