To clarify, the arrow, is directly ON TOP of the slain dragon effigy you see at the big bon fire (which 4 mobs surround). You can access it by walking up a fallen stone pillar that you see as you make your way to the main base up the gentle slope.
To get this quest , you should kill Bladespire Ogres. Took me 10-15 mobs to get it drop.

What to do
Description
The artifact bears markings that indicate its origins as being created by the Thunderlord clan orcs. These orcs used to live at Thunderlord Stronghold before they were changed into fel orcs. For a time the Bladespire ogres inhabited the stronghold until recently when the Horde pushed them out. You've heard of other artifacts that were lost. A drum, an arrow and a tablet come to mind as objects that you know are being sought after. Find them in Bladespire Hold and return them to Rokgar Bloodgrip.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Bladespire Threat
There is a threat to Thunderlord Stronghold worse than the Alliance at Sylvanaar. I speak of the ogres of these mountains. Just to the west, down in the ravine, lies the Bladespire clan. While they aren't the only ogres, they are the closest and they're the ones that we defeated to take this place.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Vision Guide
<race> fool. You almost destroyed the drum! I've worked too hard to get here, and my hands have been empty up until now. At least you were able to succeed where the others only met with failure, or worse. It is time to evoke a vision that will lead you to the last relic that I have been seeking.
