Stonedark Grotto entrance at 42.6, 25.4
/way Highmountain:Broken Isles 42.6, 25.4 Stonedark Grotto entrance(Updated per comment by qman2006.)
From the pond with the island where Frag was, you want to go northwest and descend the slope. The cave entrance is at a lower elevation than the pond.
Trest's coordinates are correct (Stonedark Grotto entrance at 42.6, 25.4) but for those without coordinates, Go to the west side of the pond. Face directly away from the small island and the platform on the eastern side. You will be facing a valley with a couple of torches visible on the right. Follow this path and there is another torch just outside the cave entrance.
TomTom doesn't appear to recognize "Highmountain: Broken Isles" anymore, so the best way is to use the map ID: /way #650 42.6 25.4 Stonedark Grotto entrance

You have proven a much greater ally than the Bloodtotem ever were. With my focus crystal, my wounds are healed. I fear Frag was too far gone to revive. Torok and his Bloodtotem will suffer for what they have done to us.
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
You have gained my trust. Not all drogbar are as violent as the savages led by Dargrul the Underking, nor are all tauren as bloodthirsty as the Bloodtotem. You may tell Mayla Highmountain that she has our support. The cavern we call home is yours to explore freely as well, <name>.
