There's a moss-covered rock where the falls split in front of the guardian. I was able to get the water from that spot without aggroing the guardian.

Don't die here if you can help it...there is no way to return to your corpse at this time so it will be an expensive trip to the Spirit Healer.
The 1000-Year Water flows all the way to Halfhill to Nana's home.
It remains a mystery why you have to collect it right where the guardian stands.

Description
You caught me at a good time, {name}. I was just hankering to make a fresh batch of Witchberry Julep. Have you ever heard of this wondrous brew? Each sip takes ten years off your face! How do you think I still look so good? Anyway, I need a special ingredient - thousand-year water - which can be collected from the mouth of the waterfall to the north. I'm afraid the journey is too treacherous for an old matron like me, but if you can get your hands on a pitcher, I'll let you share my brew.
