Ok the above is completely wrong at the moment and can be confusing until you realize it is, so here is the way the "quest line" works.
1. The Ruins of Kel'Theril quest is actually a completely seperate quest line that can be picked up from an NPC near the outside of the ruins themselves. From what I remember, all other quests listed above, are apart of that quest chain, but the FIRST TWO are not.
2. You cannot just kill the High Chief in order for the Crudely-written Log to drop. You must be on a quest called, High Chief Winterfall, in order for it to drop. Trust me, I tried to kill him randomly, the item didn't drop, thought it was one from Pre-Cata and said oh well, came back while on the quest to kill him, and the item dropped.
Good Luck!

You will not get the following quest if you have accepted The Ruins of Kel'Theril quest in Felwood. If you have, simply abandon it for an extra quest.
If you do any of the quests in the Ruins of Kel'Theril chain, you can no longer finish the Timbermaw chain. Crappy, but there it is.

What to do
Description
The log you found on the high chief looks extensive, but after looking through a couple of the pages, you find that you cannot read the text. The markings are so crude and poorly-formed that you are not sure if anyone would be able to read them. But perhaps Donova will be able to tell you what it says...
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- High Chief Winterfall
The Winterfall furbolg are not a normally aggressive tribe, and this change in their behavior leads me to think that they must be under orders from their chief. We most likely can't undo the damage that has already been done, but if their leader is slain, they may not get any worse.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Words of the High Chief
The Winterfall are no longer a threat to me, but if you still want to find out what was driving the furbolg to create and consume this strange firewater, I think you should seek out Kelek Skykeeper.
