TheWoWDBI found the hanging banner on the INSIDE of the building next to the stable master. It's the same building containing the Pet Supplies NPC, Lysindra.

You have to find a banner/flyer in Valdrakken to pick up this quest. I also found it inside the building next to the stable master, like Windshear mentioned. I posted a SS also.

I couldn't find the Quest (To the Archives!) at NPC. Is there any pre-quest thingy?

- Excavation 101
So, you want to learn how to excavate artifacts? You came to the right orc! Turns out being able to shape the earth is useful when you're trying to get stuff out of the ground. And given how much the elements affect our work, it helps having an elemental to lend a hand.
