Don't start heading up the mountain he's located in the cave with all the neat blue crystals that you have been going back and forth for mobs for the other quests in this quest line.

The nightfallen is located inside the huge cave behind the big rock: /way 48.25 22.71

Entrance to cave is: /way 48.14 25.7 face north and you can't miss it.

Every time I do this quest, I always stay to the end after handing it off. To witness the end of poor [npc=91131]. Even though we knew him for only a very short time, he's a character that really means something. His voice acting is terrific and his final words are so poetic and heartbreaking.

Runas:
This hunger is consuming my very mind. It is taking every ounce of my energy to just... just...
Can you hear me, my friend?
I... I can not see you anymore.
I think... perhaps it is time to say goodbye, then.
Thank you, my friend, for letting my last few hours mean something.....

As I say, I never leave until he is gone. I imagine my character sitting in the pool, holding [npc=91131] as he passes.
And my characters all feel my regret, and rage, as I stand up to go out and bring vengance against [npc=91155] and [npc=90267]

Goodbye, Runas the Redeemed....

Description

So Cedonu said he saw nightfallen going into Leyhollow? I don't like the sound of that. Grandfather seems to be holding his own, but the archmage and I will keep an eye on him. You go investigate our caves.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.
