TheWoWDBFor those of you, like me, who move too fast, a gryphon will appear next to the quest giver, after you finish the task.
I rode all the way back to where I was dropped off, and then came back and found him.

The highest voted Wowhead comments for this page. They are community notes, not TheWoWDB comments.
This is one of the quests in a chain that will grant at it's conclusion an [item=116394] and the toy [item=119001]. This quest is only available if you have built the Brewery (Hearthfire Tavern).
In addition, via this quest line you will get a follower for your garrison - [follower=453.2] (H)/[follower=453.1] (A). This follower is also available from [npc=88635] (H)/[npc=88633] (A) in your garrison for 5000g if you have built a Smuggler's Den and do not intend to change it.
The [item=119001] can only be obtained if you have built the Hearthfire Tavern (Brewery) instead of the Smuggler's Den as your Spires of Arak Outpost. If you have already selected the Smuggler's Den, you must pay 5000g to switch outposts (You can get 1000g back at later, as I've noted at the end of this comment). This can be done by speaking to [npc=81920] (H)/[npc=81929] (A), who will give you the option to pay the fee to switch.
After building the Brewery Outpost, you must complete the following quest line:
HordeAlliance
After this quest line has been completed, you can obtain the quest Not In Your Army (H)/Cleaning House (A), which will grant the [item=119001] toy as a reward.NOTE: Completing No Time to Waste (H)/No Time to Waste (A) grants [item=116394] as a reward. This can be used to purchase blueprints from [npc=85840] (Warspear)/[npc=85849] (Stormshield). You can get blueprints you don't already have instead of purchasing them with gold.
However, if you already have all the blueprints, purchase any of the following blueprints to vendor for 1000g:
- [item=116431] (H)
- [item=107694] (A)
- [item=109254]
- [item=111968]
- [item=111980]
- [item=111986]

Description
We have Gardul right where we want him, commander. You're far more equipped to face him than I am. Dispose of him, take his formula from his corpse, and grab as many barrels of poison as you can. I'll guard this ramp and make sure no reinforcements come to his aid.

When I got to this part in the quest, I was lost - mainly because someone had just killed Gardul Venomshiv.
To complete this quest, grab the barrels, then (for the reason most of you are here) find Gardul in front of the hut at 58,33. Kill him, then loot the Secret Formula.
While you are in the area, you can also knock off [npc=84838] for a nice 583 multistrike trinket.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Gardul Venomshiv
We need to take out Gardul and take his poison recipe while we still have the element of surprise on our side. We need it to craft the antidote. This may be our only opportunity. If what you learned is true, his camp is just south of here.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- No Time to Waste
Commander, we're in luck. The antidote recipe is fairly simple. I was able to make a small amount with what I had on me. You should take it to Lunzul before it's too late. It should keep her alive long enough for me to make more.
