TheWoWDBYou DO NOT need your [item=112904] in order to kill Eldermoss - he is still a hostile mob to you with or without the disguise.
However, when you have the disguise it makes the mobs in the area non-hostile, which allows you easier access to get to him.
You DO however NEED the disguise on when you go to turn in the quest or you will not be able to see the NPCs.

nevermind, "you can kill the caster mobs around again and get the 3 pieces of clothing to recreate the disguise."
Thank you! I couldn't figure out why I couldn't see the NPCs.

Description
To the northwest, an Ancient has settled into a forest glade. I need someone to take care of this nuisance. This should be a simple matter, even for an initiate like you.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Word of Socrethar
The Sargerei follow Socrethar zealously. From what I can gather, he is a persuasive and compelling leader. Many of the initiates carry books of his writings. I need you to read these works and report back to me. If we can understand the Sargerei's motivations, perhaps we can undermine them.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Shattering the Enemy
While you carry out the pretense of obeying Zamaya's orders, we're going to sabotage the Sargerei under their very noses. All around this village, you can find Felstorm Crystals. The enemy uses these objects to magnify their power. Destroy these crystals, and we'll slow their operations.
