TheWoWDBIn case you are like me, pre Midnight-patch, and wondering as to where to go ..
Look to the center of the square where you found Lady Liadrin. At the foot of the statue is the lantern.

There's a statue right about where the quest marker points to called Monument to the Fallen. The lantern you have to active is on that statue, on the side with the female blood elf. Very easy to miss.

Description
While the monument here was intended to honor the fallen members of the Shattered Sun, it quickly took on a second meaning for the sin'dorei. It was not far from here that we lost one of our greatest heroes: Anasterian Sunstrider, the last king of Quel'Thalas. He led our final effort against the Scourge and personally crossed blades with Arthas himself. As we remember the sacrifices it took to reclaim this land, we also remember the sacrifices made in its defense.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Setting Sun
Remember the Sunwell. We ride into battle with those words for a reason. We lost so much that day... I lost so much that day. Shine the lantern on the southern side of the island, where the Dead Scar meets the sea. There you will see how the fall of the Sunwell began.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Fall of the Sunwell
The flame of the lantern dims. Your final task is to rekindle it. In order to do so, you must walk one remaining path. While we are fortunate to hold the Sunwell once again, we must always remember that it was yet another part of us that Arthas took away...
