"Tyri" is actually a blue dragonkin by the name of Tyrygosa, depicted in the Sunwell Trilogy by Richard A. Knaak.
She is a fond of her good looks, and wanted to be a Night Elf female when transformed, because "elves are at least aesthetically attractive", as she so approriately put it.
She is the fiancee of Kalegcos, a young blue dragonkin who is trapped in human form due to a magical neck chain made by Dar'Khan, a deceptive blood elf. Kalegcos possesses tremendous amounts of magic, and although his human form refrains him from practicing most of it, he can still do some cool stuff, e.g. make a sword out of thin air.
Confirming coordinates with slightly more accurate ones.

What to do
Description
Greetings, {name}. Do not be alarmed. This is merely a projection of my current form. It's the only way my companion and I could keep watch without revealing ourselves. The ethereal who approached you, Marid, is little better than a swindler in the guise of a legitimate merchant. I'd like you to consider working with me instead. My purpose out here is to find out more about the unusual dragonkin on this ridge. Meet me at the north end of the ridge and we will discuss this further.
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.
- Getting Down to Business
As you've no doubt seen, the area is teeming with nether dragons in various stages of growth. All nether dragons, young and old, contain an essence that's highly desired by K -- err, by a client of mine.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Promising Start
We've come here to investigate rumors of a strange breed of dragons, perhaps even descendents of Deathwing himself. These are clearly not ordinary black dragons, though. We'll know more once we've had a chance to examine their eggs.
