First, Lord Everblaze is on a plateau in southern Crystalsong. Look for him around (55, 71), which is between the text "The Unbound Thicket" and the exit to Dragonblight on the map. It doesn't seem to be possible to reach this plateau without flight. Loot his Everburning Ember and take it to Winter's Breath lake in Howling Fjord, which is north of Skorn and south of Camp Winterhoof. The Maiden of Winter's Breath Lake is on a small ice-island in the middle, at (42.2, 19.7). Target her, use the Everburning Ember to receive the Winter's Edge, then return to your questgiver.

King Arthur: The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur. THAT is why I am your king.
Dennis: [interrupting] Listen, strange women lyin' in ponds distributin' swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.

Description
I heard an interesting story from one of the Orgrimmar valiants. In southern Crystalsong Forest, overlooking the Crystal Vice's exit, you will find Lord Everblaze. Kill him and take the everburning ember from his corpse. Bring it to the center of Winter's Breath Lake in northern Howling Fjord, and use it to free the maiden encased in ice. She is the guardian of an ancient sword and will award it to whoever frees her. Prove your worth and earn the weapon that she has guarded for so long, {name}.
