i was you, but i got impatient after 2 minutes maybe. But this questline isn't a real smooth ride so far :(
You pick this quest up from Lady Jaina Proudmoore.
You’re basically just going to be mounting up and traveling over to where Stromgarde Keep is, not Stormgarde Keep, in case you’re dyslexic.
My quest marker wasn’t showing me where I needed to go at first, it was pointing somewhere way off the map, so if it does the same for you, just know you’re heading to the west side of Arathi Highlands.
You’ll speak with Lady Jaina again on top of the front wall.

Description
The plans you found indicate the ogres are trying to get food to supply a massive attack on Stromgarde Keep! Or they're trying to use the crops to keep guarding an object named a storm. The translation was loose. It's safe to assume our problem is the former. Let's go!
