For those that are doing this quest and haven't figured it out, here's what worked for me.  I had my bind point set for Tanvu.  Once I jumped off the cliff and retrieved the flower, I recalled to Tanvu, ran down to the docks and teleported to the elven city (of course I don't remember the name and am at work) that is closest to the questgiver and turned in the quest.  The first time I tried it I didnt realize that the quest is on a timer and I failed as I searched the auction house, repaired gear, etc.  The second time I went straight back to the questgiver, turned in the quest and continued on.

I would be interested to know if anyone found a better or easier way to do this part of the quest?   

in the last day of beta I drowned my self to spawn back at the graveyard lol

I used my Raki racial Planar Shift to jump off of the cliff.  Then I spent a long time running back.
