Easy find, just run down the road a little and you will find him in the middle of the road.
cords: 42,35
Apoclypse is right- the exact cords are 42,35 not 42,36 it would put you past the npc :)

Description
It's hard work being an outrunner between Sunstrider Isle and Falconwing Square. Tight deadlines, long hours and worst of all... the Wretched! The road south goes through the ruins of Silvermoon... the place is crawling with Wretched ready to kill you for a few mana crystals. Unfortunately, I think that's what happened to the last outrunner we sent with one of Erona's packages. I see you're eager to prove yourself. Venture into Dawning Lane and see if you can find any traces of our outrunner.
