TheWoWDBSince no one else actually provided directions to this Pylon, I posted a screenshot of where the path is up to the Pylon. Once you have received this quest head West from the Gorilla cave along the Crater wall. Just past the gorillas, on your right, before you get to the gigantic oak, you should see two palm trees up on the right. The path up to the Pylon will take you past the palms which should be on your left as you head up..

Description
You've done us a number of favors, {name}... now let Gremix do one for you. The attacks on Marshal's Refuge were terrible, undoubtedly. They came without warning, and took no prisoners. They were lucky that so many of them survived. A few weeks ago, I came across a crystal pylon in the cliffs to the northeast of here, east of Marshal's Refuge. I think the pylon and the attacks may be related somehow. Maybe you can investigate? I'm sure someone in Marshal's Stand will thank you.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Apes of Un'Goro
There's plenty of money to be had here in Un'Goro, you just need to know where to look! Apes may be common here in Un'Goro, but they're much rarer up north. In Everlook, a gorilla hide fetches ten times what you'll get for it down here!
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Claws of White
Stop, <race>. I could use the help of a <class> like you. Right outside this camp, there are raptors with deadly claws. I've been using the claws for druid rituals, but it doesn't seem to be working.
