Breaking Out is a quest for level 8-45. It is step 1 of 20 in the Vault of the Wardens storyline, the opening step. The quest's turn-in marker is in Vault of the Wardens at 77.8, 35.7. It rewards 6,150 experience and money.
We cannot fight our way out of the Vault alone.
Two of your allies, Kayn Sunfury and Altruis the Sufferer, are imprisoned within this room.
Free them with haste. Their strength will be of great use to us.

It could be difficult to see but the quest requires you to click the to prisons on either side of the room. They look like glass but dont light up.
If anyone is having trouble with this, you can use your hearthstone to return to the questgiver.
My location bugged out to the other side of the wall when I logged out, having not completed the quest, but a hearthstone puts you right back where you need to be.
Hope this helps.
Why imprison Altruis of all people? He was one of a handful of demon hunters who didn't go power mad back in Outland.

Storyline order is the client’s own QuestLine data from the current retail build.
Step 1 of 2. Chain order is read from the prerequisite data in the current retail client build, so it reflects what the game requires, not a curated storyline.

So many years of imprisonment has left us weak. The Vault is overrun with demons. Kill them and gather their souls to regain your strength.
Vault of the Wardens has 20 steps, from Breaking Out to Illidari, We Are Leaving.
Maps its steps are placed on (steps per map): Vault of the Wardens (7), Vault of the Wardens (7), Vault of the Wardens (5), Stormwind City (1).
Steps, storylines and map placement from the client’s QuestLine, prerequisite and QuestPOI data; neighbouring quest text is Blizzard’s own (quest API), shortened to its opening sentences.
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.
