Fastest way to [npc=89751]'s cave (entrance at 38.12, 90.74) is to use some manner of gliding from Krasus' Landing in Dalaran.
Another option is to jump off the city into the water, mount, and run northward to the path at around 38.24, 93.02.
Leads to Fit for an Elven Queen and ends with Sifting Through the Rubble.
