TheWoWDBAfter the Ice and Shadow quest, i didn't find any quest called "Grey idols". So i went ahead and picked up "Whispers of the Darkness" @ 56.5 89.4 and it kept me going towards stage 3. The Final Ward.
I saw no comment so i suppose you're wrong about "Grey idols"and hopefully this will help someone!

The final ward is down in the cave located directly behind the questgiver. I flew up to where the marker was on my minimap like an idiot and wondered why I couldn't find it.
I don't know if scaling is weird or what but I had the greatest trouble with the 2 necrodark and them summoning their minions as a feral druid. Eventually, I did a stealth rake on one and maim on the other to temp stun both just long enough for me to place the ward. Then I ran out like hell. lol

Description
The Necrodark are readying their ritual to give physical form to the Darkness. They've sealed themselves inside and barred our way. The shards you brought me should provide the means to bring down the barrier. Once it is done, we have to act quickly. We must restore the final ward before the Darkness can manifest. Do not hesitate. The fate of Highmountain itself hangs in the balance.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Ice and Shadow
We took down one of the Necrodark. Ebonhorn found that it held a shard of ice infused with shadow essence. Perhaps the villains are using these shards as a kind of talisman. I suggest you deprive them of their trinkets.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Whispers of the Darkness
Before our arrival, many of our own came to neutralize the threat here. They did not know what they were walking into. Our people are now suffering from the whispers. The Old Gods seek to corrupt them and turn them against their own. Wake them from their stupor.
