Make sure to loot the NPCs, they have a non-100% drop chance for a set of starter quests from the Scout's Orders.
This quest opens up at 8. If you're any class with a heal, it's just a regular kill quest with a stealth mob.
If you're not however, this quest can be EXTREMELY annoying. Classes like a warrior, rogue, things like that, will find this quest a pain at 8. Reason being, like all rogues, these ones like sneaking up on you to get the first shot.
Also like most rogues, the second you move away from one, another comes out from the bushes to imbalance the odds. So if you don't have a self heal, you might just wanna wait a level or two, or be prepared to die a few times, only to rez and be killed again by the mobs that camp the graveyard.

Description
Our enemies abound, {class}, even here at our very doorstep. The night elves have reinforced Talrendis Point in an attempt to stop our advance into Ashenvale. As we speak, their scouts patrol the nearby hills, reporting every movement to and from these gates. We must remove these eyes of Ashenvale. Go. Your prey stalks all around these gates, especially to the east. Slay the scouts who shadow us!
