If you're getting slaughtered, the fight in this quest is relatively easy to beat if you understand what to do. Don't fight the mobs head on. Go off to the side of the room and let the NPC guards take the brunt of the fight.

There are two packs. At the beginning of each fight, one of the mobs will break off and run towards you. After you kill this one, pick off the rest one at a time. Rinse and repeat for the second pack.

    We have done all we can about the Jailer for now, my friend. Other matters require our attention. Like the devourer rifts I recently saw opening to the east! If we do not stop them, those beasts will wreak havoc on this place. Will you help me take care of them, <name>?
