In case you don't realize this -- or are having problems finding the turn in -- it's not down in the sewers. There is a portal in the middle of the room (the chamber in the center of Dalaran). The blue circle ports you down into the Chamber of the Guardian (where there are other portals to places, and Archmage Khadgar).

Don't an idiot like me and head straight for the cave, or Kadghar won't spawn, and no matter how many times you kill the mob [npc=112477] won't drop anything!

Take Khadgar's flight, once you land in [zone=7767], head straight out to sea (or die at the hands of 110 mobs just inland) and swim down to the crash site, it has a swirly appearance, once you're there you'll get the seach credit.
Then enter the cave, at which point you'll get the credit for exploring it - no exploration required!
Then kill [npc=112477] and loot the [item=140574] before hearthstoning back to Dalaran to hand the quest in.

Coordinates for TomTom / Paste users are:

/way Suramar 92.0, 61.2 Swim down to crash site
/way Suramar 94.6, 64.2 Cave Entrance - swim in to get credit
/way Suramar 94.4, 67.2 Kill Yorg Murkmouth and loot Mysterious Lightbound Object

Clarification, the swirly (crash site) is at the bottom of the sea.
You have to swim ALL THE WAY to it for credit, as mentioned @ 92,61.

Once you've killed the Giant, Hearth to Dalaran, go to middle of city, port down to the Chamber of the Guardian and Khadgar is in the first room on the right.

Description

<Khadgar ponders the information that you brought to him.> You say that it cut a swath through the Felstorm and was emanating power enough that your scout could feel it coursing through their body? Something that powerful could prove to be a potent weapon against the Burning Legion! I will inform the other order leaders of your discovery while you investigate the matter further! A gryphon awaits your command at Krasus' Landing! Light guide you.
