You have to bring armor from [npc=99402] at Black Rook Hold Castle in Val'sharah. It's easier to enter the castle from the back entrance at 38.71, 57.8, nearest flight point is Bradensbrook. [npc=99402] is inside the building at 40.9, 51.4, kill him, get [item=129974] and get back to [npc=98931] in Dalaran.

For those confused like I was, you don't have to enter the dungeon. Go around to the back of the area and you can access this and the other Leatherworking quest.
FYI Horde players - the back of the rook, near the sea is an Alliance location and you can be flagged if you get too close.

Description
All types of Black Rook Hold armor are intriguing, but I'm most interested in their chest pieces. If ye can, try to find someone of importance there and... relieve them of their shirt. If it makes ye feel any better, I've heard they're all cursed, so puttin' them out of their misery is the least ye could do.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Black Rook Bandit
I've heard rumors of a grand castle in Val'sharah that's known to house an impressive army. Surely, the armor they wear ain't made of sticks and hay. I'm willing to bet they've fashioned some mail armor at some point fer their troops and it's just sitting there, ripe for the taking.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- From Head to Toe
You've been busy, <name>. And you have some new patterns in your repertoire, I see! How about we add another?
