If your disguise breaks before you accept the quest from Kel'Thuzad he becomes hostile and doesn't offer the quest anymore. I entered a BG and when I came back out lost the disguise and now I can't accept the quest.

Description
The kyrian will no doubt make a worthy sacrifice for our ritual, but I am not entirely versed with the magics of his kind. I have requested that the Baroness Ninadar assemble a list of appropriate literature, so that I can ensure my ritual will have the desired effect. As you know, the baroness enjoys exploiting her title, so expect to be faced with some manner of mundane tasks in exchange for her cooperation. Return when you have procured the tomes, acolyte.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Baron's Plan
You have done well in my service, Nelesis. When the time has come to take my rightful place, you will be well rewarded. Until then, I will require your utmost devotion and secrecy. Our preparations are almost complete. Come, walk with me, and I will show you the splendor of our works.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Cantrip Collections
One of the... more regrettable duties of the Mistress of Tomes is the collation and maintenance of our scroll library. Unfortunately, many of our acolytes are less than prompt when it comes to returning items they have borrowed, which requires me to seek them out and retrieve them myself.
