TheWoWDBThis quest, as all other class specific Shadowfang Keep quests, is NOT meant to be attempted alone. It is meant to be done during a normal group dungeon run. Hence the quest type given is "Dungeon".
You could come back 20 levels later and solo the place but then you'd have long since outgrown the quest reward.
Just remember, all classes have class specific quests at levels 20 (Shadowfang Keep) and 50 (BRD). You can find these quests by pulling down the Database --> Class menu above. There is generally a breadcrumb quest sending you to the quest giver. The breadcrumb can be skipped except by those affected with completaholicism.

Description
From your earliest days, {name}, your trainers identified you as a natural talent. Your rapid progress and dedication have made you an example. In recognition of your service, King Wrynn has commissioned the royal armorer to forge a special weapon. Legend has it that the cursed Shadowfang Keep in Silverpine Forest is home to a variety of materials that you will need. Travel there and find the lost Silverlaine family sword, a supply of moonsteel ingots, and sinew from ghouls and geists infesting the keep.
