Found a slight bug with this quest. After I freed him he immediately disappeared. Later on I found him stuck in a wall at the town hall in the city for some odd reason...
So check around if he up and vanishes on you!
I found this quest somewhat humerous. While running around with him (Messner), he'll start blurting out random comments such as:
"Being a mage has its advantages, but the laundry bills are hell to pay."
"I need to use the restroom."And my personal favorites:
"So whatever happened to that hot little number in Stormwind? Lady Prestor was her name."
"I think I'm going to go to Dalaran after this is over. Help 'em get that city up and floating."Someone needs to get out of Redridge. =D

What to do
Description
I don't know where Krakauer or Danforth are, but Jorgensen was being held at Render's Camp, northwest of here. I was in the same crap filled cage with him before they relocated me to Alther's Mill. If we're gonna get him out we'll need the key. A stone cold witch from hell known as Utroka the Keymistress holds on tight to that thing. We'll have to kill her if we're going to get Jorgensen's cage key. She's up north in the valley leading to the Burning Steppes. Let's go, kid.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Breaking Out is Hard to Do
The key to this cage is stored in a pouch over at the worg den, just north of our location. The problem is that the pouch is resting safely atop a tree stump amidst a sea of bloodthirsty man-killing worgs. You've got one shot to get that key without waking up any of those sleeping worgs.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Krakauer
Krakauer is up on the chopping block as we speak! The orcs brought in a Gurubashi witch doctor to perform a dark ritual on him. We need to kill that troll to free Krakauer! Let's go! He's just inside the cave here. Hang a right at the first fork.
