Just a side note to those using AutoTurnin. Use the modifier key (shift) when turning this quest in, otherwise it seems to bug and Milo never shows up.
In other words, don't automate the quest turnin, do it manually.
If he isn't there, type /reload
It will reload the UI and game and he'll appear.

Description
D-d-did you see that? How the whole cave just crumbled like that? I guess it's good that you got here when you did, and not a minute earlier. While this development makes my job of monitoring the cave entrance much easier, I imagine it makes it a lot harder for you to get to Kharanos. Hey wait, I've got an idea! The Gnomeregan Airmen have a flight path not far from here. I'll send up a signal, and they should be here to help. I imagine they'll land back over at Anvilmar.
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.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Trip to Ironforge
The presence of a fire elemental here in Coldridge is no small matter. That earthquake did more than just upset a bunch of troggs... it changed the world enough to tear a gash into the elemental plane. We should submit a report to Ironforge. You wouldn't be willing to take a trip, would ya?
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Pack Your Bags
The weight limit on my gyro is such that I only have enough room for one <race>. Looks like you're in luck, <name>! That dwarf woman Jona told me that most of your personal belongings have been moved inside Anvilmar.
