TheWoWDBThe quest description is massively vague on where you actually go. There is an unnoticable pathway inside Stardust Spire, just to the right of the exit into Stonetalon Mountains. The archway leads directly up in the mountains.

As soon as you accept the quest, turn and face south, you'll see two gates, one on the left heading down into Stonetalon Mountains, and one on the right, you take the one on the right.

I went a bit out of the way trying to find this guy, and I don't like trying to explain what I can visually show you. If you like this video guide. Please rate up. It's what keeps me making the searching videos. Thanks.

Description
So these night elves send out a desperate call for help to us, goes something like this: <Gnombus changes the pitch of his voice to sound like a woman.> "Please come help us! The big, mean Horde has goblins! Oh, we can't handle goblins! They pull our hair and make us cry!" Right, anyway, so here we are. The first thing I did was upgrade their aerial defenses with some of my new sniper guns. Problem is, they don't use guns. Do yourself a favor and lend 'em a hand, eh? Find 'em south of here.

After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Only Way Down is in a Body Bag
The skies are swarming with heavily armored orcs on the backs of even more heavily armored wind riders. Our best efforts to bring them down have thus far proven fruitless. Our arrows usually just bounce off of those foul creatures.
