On offering it
My people are trapped and hunted withing the forest that was once our home. You're a big one, just like the nasties, so you must free them! Some can be freed by slaying their captors who wander the forest, and others are hiding in hollow tree stumps. Do not approach the house they're imprisoned in, though, oh no - that's too big and too bad even for you.

On finishing it
Baroo says, "A blow is struck! Let us speak again - I have a great plan, but it relies on great bravery. Are you prepared?" Baroo says, "I'll allow you to take this coin out of thanks."

Notes
The Brownies are being lead around the camp by handlers or hidden in tree stumps as clickable Terrified Shimmerleaf Brownies. Some of the larger stumps contain two brownies. Stealthed profession may be able to sneak in and click the brownies without aggroing the riftseekers.
