TheWoWDBThe Illidari-Bane questline is a series of quests that leads to some cool anti-demon weapons. It involves entering many level-70 instances, so you probably want to do the prerequisites before then. David Wayne is also rumored to be Mograine of the Ashbringer.

Quest
Quenching the Blade
A World of Warcraft quest in Shadowmoon Valley. Facts and objectives from the current retail game data.
The highest voted Wowhead comments for this page. They are community notes, not TheWoWDB comments.
51,40 is the location of the scalding pools. You have to fly up here. Once there use the item provided and make sure you loot the blade once its quenched.
After you've done Mechanaar and Shadow Labyrinth, I think you get two more quests that send you into Steamvault and Shattered Halls. (See 'Underworld Loam' and 'Tear of the Earthmother') I *think* the whole quest line looks something like this: - Illidari-Bane Shard - Capture the Weapons - The Hermit Smith - Additional Materials - Fresh from the Mechanaar (Mechanaar) + The Lexicon Demonica (Shadow Labyrinth) - Underworld Loam (Steamvault) + Tear of the Earthmother (Shattered Halls) - Bane of the Illidari - Quenching the Blade

What to do
Illidari-Bane Dagger, 
Illidari-Bane Mageblade, 
Illidari-Bane Claymore, 10g 50s, 5,150 XPDescription
The blade is nearly finished! You can almost feel the magic beginning to coalesce inside the steel, but one thing remains to be done. You must take the forged blade to the Scalding Pools near the top of the Hand of Gul'dan in Shadowmoon Valley and plunge it into the lava pools to quench the sword. When you have quenched the sword, return.

Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Bane of the Illidari
<David gathers his smithing supplies.> You've done well in getting everything we'll need to reforge the anti-demon blade. Your hard work and dedication is about to be repaid. The time has come to forge the sword.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Sketh'lon Wreckage
Our scouts have brought back disturbing reports from the ruined arakkoa encampments in the area. The ghosts of powerful arakkoa magicians wield powers we never thought they possessed. They seem to be organizing, as though preparing for something, but our knowledge is limited.
