A rune forge at 39, 40 of the Maw is a nice place to rescue these souls. There, the souls and Stone Prisons respawn quickly, with minimal hostile mobs. You can camp between the forge's east and west side to collect the souls without losing an arm and a leg. [npc=157833] also spawns on the round platform next to it.

The quest is a bit too difficult and too dangerous. Players often have to risk a lot of Stygia roaming in the Maw, looking for the souls. Moreover, the souls are usually guarded by hostile mobs. So, please, Daddy Blizz, do not nerf any further the respawn rate of the souls or Stone Prisons.
