I'm not sure if it's my addons, assorted UI crappiness, or bad design, but the "Parachute" button provided just dismounted me and plunged me to my death. The next time I tried I was prepared for it and triggered my own Goblin Glider, but the first time out it was a fine troll.

If you can't figure out where the hell this starts or how to get inside--look for Paratrooper Ort at 67.1, 21.4 (or for those without coords--perfectly centered on the "o" in Hatherford on the map, atop the hill overlooking the town.

It's a kneeling orc under some trees, on top of the hill, who will send you in via wyvern.

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.
