I sat there for a few minutes wondering if it was bugged because he wasn't showing up. When I tried moving away from the quest giver and the 'Iyu is near' debuff disappeared, so I abandoned and tried again. Still nothing.
You have to make your way back up to the entrance of the cave to find him. In retrospect I should have checked the quest text, but I know not everyone does that, so maybe this comment will help someone else.

What to do
Description
Did ya hear that? Sounds like that genesaur wants its 'will' back. I told ya this place is nuthin' but bad luck. I'll git that shot ya gave me loaded properly and see if I can't weaken that thing up. You better get up there and deal with it though...
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.
- Will of the Genesaur
When the goren attacked we threw everything we had at them but they just kept comin'. So some of the lads went and stole a fancy artifact from the botani. Problem was we couldn't get it to work. Now the artifact is sitting at the bottom of the bastion.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Power of the Genesaur
Commander, you now have the Will of the Genesaur along with the genesis water and enough seeds to grow an army. Not to mention the lives of the dwarves you saved. I would call this mission a success. I can help the dwarves mop up their operation here and see what we can salvage.
