TheWoWDBI was not able to turn this quest in to Valewalker Farodin until I came close to the portal at 42,14 inside the Temple of Fal'adora, after completing it and the other quest he gives you. Before that, he didn't have a golden question mark over his head even after I completed this quest.

When you just picked up the quest from Valewalker Farodin, you'll see two ways: stairs leading up and the broken wall with pass to underground, you have to go down, there you'll find mobs for quest. If there will be not enought [npc=105554]s, you can find more down the stairs. After you done, get back to the portal, where you'll be able to turn up the quest to Farodin.

Enchanted Nightborne Coin, 20g 22s, 6,150 XPDescription
Long have I walked this land and I have seen many forms of corruption. The creatures that wander this hall are twisted by the magics unleashed by the failed arcan'dor. These dryads have lost their way, and cannot be saved. You must destroy them. End their suffering.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Growing Crisis
The Arcan'dor is failing. This energy was once bound in its boughs and fueled its growth. There was balance, between life and arcane. Now that energy is breaking free. When the heart can no longer hold it, this tree will kill every living thing in this hall.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Fragments of Disaster
In the hall beyond rests the bones of the failed arcan'dor. I will take fragments of the crystallized tree and attempt to read them. We must discover the root cause of this destruction. Only then do we have any hope of preventing this disaster from repeating itself.
