If you have portals, telepoting to "The Waning Crescent" will save your time.
The NPC is in the tavern.
If you're close, you will see Silgryn in front of the tavern and he will say "They are waiting for you in the tavern"Hope it made sense and saved your time.
Peace.

What to do
Description
I have heard whispers from Suramar City. Recent unrest in the city has prompted the nobles to seek another advisor to fill Elisande's council. Such positions are rarely offered and hotly contested. This is the perfect opportunity and Ly'leth is the perfect candidate. Fate smiles upon our cause! I know she has historically chosen to avoid such politics and maneuvering, but we must now ask her to join the fray. Seek her out at the Waning Crescent and ensure her victory.

Where this quest fits
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Either With Us
Thalyssra asks much of me, but our cause is worth the risks. The title of advisor would grant us enormous influence. Information. Access. I could change this rebellion. I could save so many lives. I will need strong endorsement to ascend, though.
