TheWoWDBThis quest has some bad coding. If you ride through the gargons too quickly and run too far ahead, the quest will not complete correctly. If this happens, abandon and restart the quest making sure you walk slowly through the gargons remaining just slightly ahead of him and you should complete it okay.

You simply have to pull Loksey along the path through the gauntlet of gargons (= bear type animals). No interaction required. Just stay ahead and nearby him as he reacts to each pair of gargons.
This did not work in ghost wolf. I had to walk for it to register.

Description
Sire Denathrius has requested I help you prepare for the hunt. Every hunter must help prepare a soul here in the Grove of Terror. I have a stubborn soul here who's been quite uncooperative, Houndmaster Loksey. His time has come to be hunted. <The Fearstalker hands you a set of Hopebreaker Soul Chains.> Demoralize him. We can't let him leave here with any hope. The hunt is meant to break the souls so they become less... resistant to the processes of Revendreth.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Grove of Terror
Ah, yes. You've done me a great favor in delivering the Accuser, Maw Walker. To celebrate, I must insist that you take part in a sacred tradition of Revendreth: The Penitent Hunt. It is a duty we undertake to strike a humbling fear into the hearts of the most... stubborn souls.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Alpha Bat
Dredbats are quite useful to us. We make them just like stoneborn, but they lack their same... intelligence. With very little direction, they strike fear into stubborn souls' hearts. With the anima drought, our dominion over them has waned. One, Duskterror, has wreaked the most havoc.
