After you pick up the quest - follow the path west. If you stay on the path until you cross the river, you will avoid the tigers. You will continue west after you cross the river and you will see a Horde banner where Makael Bay will be. He is a Goblin.
If you are careful on approach you can avoid the Darkened Horrors (aka Lizard men) patroling the area.

To dislodge the alliance ship, we need to find our engineer. He parted ways with us when we were escaping the wreckage. You should be able to find him somewhere in the western forest. Tell him Korga sent you and he'll get in line to help.

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.
