TheWoWDBIt seems completing this quest will cause the 3 Shadow Hunters you use the quest item on to show up on the outskirts of your Garrison dancing around a campfire. Pretty neat little addition.

A World of Warcraft quest in Nagrand. Facts and objectives from the current retail game data.
The highest voted Wowhead comments for this page. They are community notes, not TheWoWDB comments.
Baron Samedi is the Loa of the dead from Haitian Voodoo. He was already present in game as Bwonsamdi during the event to retake Echo Isles for Darkspear Trolls.
Also, Samedi exists as Loa of cemetries in Warcraft RPG, however it is unknown whether Samedi and Bwonsamdi are the same Loa.
After completing the quest, they appear in your garrison, always dancing together.

After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Shields Up!
The Warsong packleader is trying to raise Telaar's shield. If Kargora does that, the Warsong will have an impervious base. So far, they've only managed to initiate the shield. This has the undesirable side effect of protecting the packleader and her shaman at the main crystal.
