Can you return to this phase of The Nighthold as you're leveling or do you have to wait until 110 to fly back?
Thalyssra says this after accepting the quest:
When our city faced its darkest hour, the heroes of Azeroth fought with us to drive out the Legion. Some did so reluctantly.
But the sin'dorei--the blood elves--showed us respect and understanding. Their kinship proved there were others in Azeroth who share our values.
Now it is our turn to demonstrate the strength and honor we bring to the Horde.
Go to Orgrimmar. Join with our allies and forge a new future together.
As you travel the roads of Azeroth, tell those you meet of the nightborne's proud history... and show them that we live in seclusion no longer.

Description
After ages standing alone, we are once again poised to become part of something greater. Our alliance with the Horde affords us a fresh start, a unique chance that must not be squandered. Go to Orgrimmar. From there, you will set out on a journey across Azeroth. Fight to defend this land, and claim a place for the shal'dorei within it. Show the world who we are, {class}. Bring honor to the Horde, for in so doing, you will bring honor to Suramar.
