This was a quest introduced for The Scourge Invasion world event in patch 1.11. The event introduces Naxxramas, a floating necropolis & home to the lich Kel'thuzad. The quests introduced for the event are no longer available.

How tragic. These words, clearly meant for someone the soldier loved, never made it to their destination. The events detailed happened years ago; I'm not sure if the intended recipient still lives.

There is hope yet, however. With the names and information he gives, I might be able to locate the family! It will take some research, but the librarian in Stormwind owes me a favor...

Thank you for bringing this to me. With your help we may be able to grant someone peace of mind at last.

And confirmed at the moment - the Keeper does not offer a follow up to this quest.

Edited in for more information: This quest is also being 'reused' for the pre-launch events leading up to Wrath of the Lich King. I received this document from a Skeletal Soldier spawned by a Necrotic Shard in Tanaris.

Description

You found this letter on one of the many Scourge minions you've slain. From its appearance and smell, it has been with the undead for some time. Perhaps someone at Light's Hope Chapel would be interested in examining it further...
