I landed in Crimson Thicket so I could get to the WQ's in the city. As soon as I landed, this quest popped up, but there was nothing on my map. Had to follow the coordinate's above to find where it was.
For those without coordinates, once you land, open your map and look just below the flight master (south) for a small relief on the map, it looks sort of like a tear drop. The quest area is just below that (south again). You should see the circles for the beacons and a larger area for the mobs to kill.
You will also know you're there because there are a bunch of friendly Withered attacking the same mobs you need to. Nearly all the mobs I killed were inside the city's shield and they would constantly respawn regardless of how many I killed. The withered do seem to do some damage, so this one goes real quick.
