If you did not pick up this quest and you need to get back to it -

First run up the road past all the ghostly officers until you are about to enter the arena area. You will see some gryphons flying around. Turn right thru the archway and follow it around until you see [npc=92419]

Go behind him, go thru the archway and follow the hallway and down the spiral staircase. Go past jarod and arduen and turn left, go straight until you see maiev

Description

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. He tormented me these past few moons, but I did not yield. <Maiev runs a finger along her curved blade.> His life must be ended.

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.
