I forgot all about it. Why do we have to go through all the hassles to figure out how this instant work again? No, you don't need to. I can show you how this instance supposed to work here.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Once you go inside the instance, you will see Erozion (a humanoid) and Brazen (a dragon) waiting for you at the cave entrance.

Notice: If you are doing this for Heroic: The Escape From Durnholde achievement, Epoch Hunter (Boss) won't be at the location on the map. So you need to wait and follow the event until he shows up himself for you to kill him.

Get to the place:

1. Talk to Erozion and pick up Pack of Incendiary Bombs.
2. Talk to so Brazen so he can carry you to the Durnholde Keep. (You can walk to the Durnholde Keep if you want.)

To start the event:

3. Go inside each building (total 5) which hold Orc Prisoners (those buildings are outside of the Durnholde Keep main building) and find a clickable barrel to set up bombs.
4. After setting up the 5th bomb, it will start a fire by itself. Then quickly go inside the Durnholde Keep and go to the basement (there is an entrance next to the stair leading to the 2nd floor).
5. Talk to Thrall standing right inside the prison door so he will respond to you.

To complete the event:

6. Follow him out and do not loose sight of him. (If you loose him, he will be waiting for you at /way 52.0 41.0 for TomTom users.)
7. Talk to Thrall again. Just watch and see how the event goes.
8. Epoch Hunter will show up and start to attack you. If you can kill all the enemy including him, you will be successful.

(If you wonder how to get out the instance, then go to /way 28.71 47.71 for TomTom users.)
