The dialogue is a little different for demon hunters than for other characters.

Sirius Ebonwing: <Sirius Ebonwing looks as pale as a ghost. He shivers uncontrollably.> You: "Sirius, are you okay?"

Asha Ravensong: "[Name], it's you. We were in pursuit of a dangerous dreadlord. Unfortunately, he lured us right into a trap." You: "Asha, you're free."

Cassiel Nightthorn: <Cassiel Nightthorn's body is nearly unrecognizable. He was tortured, then died from the wounds.> You: "Rest in peace, old friend."

Fun fact: I had nearly completed this quest without reading anything (because I'd read it all on other characters) before I realized it was different for demon hunters, and Wowhead didn't have the information, so out of curiosity I dropped the quest and started over. I had nearly completed it again before I realized maybe I should have put the info on Wowhead for anyone else who accidentally rushed through, so I've now done this quest three times on the same character.

Where to go

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.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Brotherly LoveVal'sharah · Level 10-45

    Maiev will be somewhere in the prison. I found her discarded armor on my way here. I know the two of you have a history. I trust that will not be a problem. Let's split up to search the cells more quickly. We must find her.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Lieutenant of the TowerVal'sharah · Level 10-45

    All of your instincts were correct. Gul'dan raised Lord Ravencrest, and his ghostly army, from beyond the grave. Now, they serve the Legion, protecting secrets within the tower. Although Ravencrest commands from above, Lieutenant Desdel Stareye operates the prisons.
