A note on prerequisites: I was able to take this quest immediately after completing The Mender's Stead, but without doing any of the quests from that camp.
This is how it works guys. You need to be lvl 38. And need to have completed Combat Training and The Menders' Stead. Enjoy

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Combat Training
A val'kyr's only purpose is to serve, and this one serves you. I am now giving you full control over her abilities, <name>. Roaming around the farm's outskirts, you should find several of the Forsaken that you just created. I want you to use your val'kyr to gather at least five of them.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Farmers' Militia
The battle started when they attacked us from the rear. I let my guard down, and a group of poorly-armed farmers and militiamen swung into our flank from the Writhing Haunt. They may be weak, but unchecked, they threaten to overwhelm us with their numbers.
