The globe is dropped by Tideress the named water elemental on the small island with the gazebo in Mystral Lake, Ashenvale. It'll take you on a small journey that'll bring you some nice XP (considering the work you do, and if you have the flight path at Zoram'Gar already, even easier!) and some nice gear.
As the info implies, this quest is Horde-only.

I tried this Quest with my alt
I cleanly done every quest untill this one - I skipped all the way to it in order to gain the quest for the BFD dungeon
The sad thing, the drop rate is 0%
but when I took the Quest Simmer Down Now from the Orc Captain near the late at the Sliver house/hold forgotton the names - I headed to Tideress and killed it then looted the Globe to start the Quest :)
1 kill 100% drop as long as u took the Simmer Down Now
and I rushed to hand over the Globe quest even before Finishing Simmer down now and Queued to Dungeon to try out the next Quest in chain = Je'neu Of The Earthen Ring.
Guess what ? It Worked just fine and I was able to hand in the Quest and get the rewards :>
Good luck ppls
To get this quest to drop, you must be on Simmer Down Now.

Description
The slain elemental has produced an intensely glowing globe of water. The contents of the globe are, at best, disgusting. It would be safe to assume that whatever has befouled the water of Mystral Lake is most likely present in the water of the globe. It's not exactly common knowledge who might be interested in such a find; perhaps Mastok Wrilehiss at Splintertree Post, might have an idea.
