Don't be fooled - she's not in the cave, she's above it, even though the minimap makes it look like she's inside. In short, the cave is a lie.
I think it now require lvl 45 to be accepted since point you to Suramar. also got all the previous chain up to this and I'm level 42 and I see a grey exclamation mark on Alard Schmied.

Description
Word has been circulating in smithing circles about a pair of Illidari blacksmiths that have been doing exciting work out on the demon-infested front lines of Suramar. I'd follow up myself, but anything described as "demon-infested" is a little too exotic for my tastes. I just make the armor. I prefer not to wear it. You, though... you could follow up on this tip. Be on the lookout for Nal'ryssa. From what I hear, she's a hell of a smith.

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.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Sweet Bargain
Reading over this research, I found an interesting method that I'd like you to try. The method would require us to chill the metal to sub-freezing temperatures during the pre-tempering phase. Simple water quenching won't do.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Part of the Team
You're a blacksmith? <The elf looks down at your hammer.> Still working in leystone, are you? I might be able to help you out. Alliances out here are hard-won. You've got a pretty face, but that's no guarantee that you aren't working for the demons. I can't afford to trust you yet.
