It's interesting, regardless of which side you play as, it's always the other one that's painted as the clear 'bad guys', doing horrible things etc, while your own faction is generally portrayed sympathetically, helping people and doing what's right, and so on. You have to wonder how much of it is actually happening, and how much is just events being filtered by your own character's perceptions...
To free the little pandas, you kill the eye of kilrogg looking green orbs that are tethered to them. They're pretty easy to down and you're right there for a couple of other quests anyway.

Description
Though we have only just met, we have a common enemy: this group called the "Horde." Several days ago, their leader made us a trade offer. When we refused, his servants abducted several of our cubs as bargaining chips. We have called in the Shado-Pan to help, but they are in Kun-Lai Summit, a journey of several days. Can you come to our aid?

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Smoke Before Fire
Sully scouted the Horde establishment to the north, and he reports seeing a large pile of explosives, along with a small force of demolishers. That's not to mention the demons that their warlocks have summoned. Luckily, we came prepared. We've got air support from the Skyfire.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Fall of Ga'trul
Alright lad. We've taken enough jabs at this warlock army... now it's time to cut off the head. Ga'trul's back there, in that big ol' temple ruin. Give him a good what-for, and the Horde will have lost its last stake here in Pandaria.
