Cata update:
This Elder is now OUTSIDE the Stormwind gates (where the Pilgrim's Bounty tables are when that festival is on)
For those that dunno where that it. Go to Stormwind gates and you will see the beam of light. As long as you don't go too near the gate or aggro the guards (mind the one that patrols back and forth between the gate and towards Goldshire), even low level won't have a problem getting this Elder without getting PVP'd
Compared to the locations of the Horde elders, the Alliance don't have to go through near as much trouble as the horde does to get to the Alliance elders.
He is now just outside Stormwind at location 34,50
