Others on the Timelocked Progression servers pointed me to this quest in game. I complted it very quickly with my level 14 necro.
Be aware if attempting this at lower levels that the halflings heal each other like mad and assist unless they are grey to you (tagging one as a yellow when I was around level 9 brought the whole camp on my head --even though they are pretty far apart).
Dark elf NPC takes the helms even if he is prone to insulting you in text.
