I wasn't fast enough at giving out quests and the kobold went onto the WoW forums and complained about me:(
He even got a blue reply and they'll "correct" it next Tuesday. /shudders at what's going to happen to me...
A great set of quests where you get to spend a day in the life of a quest giver.
Kindle Candlecrafter is found down in the cave seen from the quest giving chair. Go to /way 54.51 42.39 across the little water (pick up the little treasure chest to your left), go right up on the small ramp.
The next task, the candle, is right next to him.
After this go back to the gatekeeper behind the fence.
