You'll need to complete Argus Highbeacon's guest "Rough Roads" to be able to continue on with Fiona's Caravan. She will give the quest "The Trek Continues" once you do.

Edit: Since Argus joins the caravan you will have the new option of a caravan buff. "Argus' Journal" Grants 2%xp Bonus while in the Eastern Plaugelands.

I'd suggest doing Onward to Light's Hope Chapel - Once you get to Crown Guard Tower, the caravan stops.
Talk to Tarenar Sunstrike to get the quest to find a traveling companion.
The npc you can add to the caravan is up top of the tower - Argus Highbeacon. In order to continue, you must complete his quest to kill 13 Plaguebats.
If you are farming for Mr.Grubbs, I managed to finally get mine after the 9th Plaguebat kill.
Btw, the more people added to the caravan - the better your chance of it dropping from the hidden stash (with Fiona's Lucky Charm buff active), so if you're farming for Mr.Grubbs, I'd say just wait til you get this 3rd guy added - w/ just the 2 pallies I got maybe 20 stash in 2 hours (Farming the Trolls up north) and no drop.

Description

While we're waiting here at this tower, we might as well see if anybody else is headed to Light's Hope Chapel. The more, the merrier, I say! Ask around to see if anybody wants to join us on our trip. I'm sure you can find somebody who's headed to Light's Hope.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Onward, to Light's Hope ChapelEastern Plaguelands · Level 15-30

    Now that the boys are back, we can head out. You headed east? Please, join us! I insist! Yesterday, we were in the Menders' Stead, and I was telling Tarenar, "We have two paladins and a shopkeeper, but you know what we really need? A <class>!" Don't look at me that way! I'm serious!

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Rough RoadsEastern Plaguelands · Level 15-30

    The Argent Crusade built these towers to be points of light in the darkness of the Plaguelands. I walk the paths between these towers, protecting and maintaining them. The roads have been dangerous lately. Plagued wildlife runs rampant, and bats swoop down upon unsuspecting travelers.
