The entrance is directly south on the map of Gnaw's Boneyard.
"Caving—also known as spelunking by some in the United States and occasionally potholing in the United Kingdom—is the recreational pastime of exploring wild (generally non-commercial) cave systems." Shamelessly stolen from the wikipedia.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Undersea Sanctuary
I believe I've located the author of your note, friend. It would seem that he is in desperate need of attention if he is to survive. I shall attune one of my scrying orbs, that you might see him for yourself.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Debriefing
This soldier was near death, but I fear we do not have the time to await his full recovery. He has information we desperately need to know. Be patient with him, but keep him talking until we've learned all that we can. With luck we might discover just what we're up against...
