I had a problem where I guess I stepped outside of the quest's boundaries, as I lost the debuff stating how many souls I had with me. This meant I could no longer interact with the cages to deposit my souls, which was extremely aggravating given that I'd gathered all the souls I needed.
Fortunately, I found I could just pick up an extra soul, thus allowing me to interact with the cages again, and that counted all the souls I had with me.
To complete this quest target the Escaped Captive at a close range and click the Chains of Regret appearing in your inventory (My quest bar icon did not work, only selecting the item appearing in my inventory worked)
The Escaped Captive will become hostile and begin to attack you. This will only last 5 seconds until the debuff (chains of regret) drops off.
The Escaped Captive will no longer be hostile and will be chained to the player with a speed reduction debuff.
Lead the Escaped Captive to the Catacombs Cage appearing next to the quest giver. (66.01, 32.37)
Click the cage and they will be captured and their name will change to Confined Soul.
*Note: If you die will leading a soul to the cage it will be lost.

Description
Our reinforcements never came, leaving us unable to tend to the souls here. They have begun to break out of their cells. Many of them are not ready for the next step in the process. Take these iron chains. They can be used to rein them under your control. Once you have a soul bound, you can return them to any intact cage you can find.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Combing the Catacombs
When the anima drought began, our defenses began to fail. Our guards, weakened by the lack of anima, became overrun as the sinstones this land is built upon rose up around us. Not to mention the manifestations of the souls who can no longer be tended to are running wild.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Lead the Way
We must move now. That won't be the last assassin we face. I can provide some cover of darkness, but mind that the spell is not infallible. Enough talking. The Curator needs us and my mirror shard to get to her as soon as possible.
