I've got an idea for how you can get close to their leaders without getting killed. But first, you're going to need to find something to wear.

My suggestion is that you head up there and get their armor from them.

(On a side note: I got Thousand Needles Quests while just going for the end quest by doing all it's pre-requisit quests and some side quests that were in the same area. (Also did a chain started with Special Delivery for Brivelthwerp but afaik this is not needed.))

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • On to the BulwarkThousand Needles · Level 15-30

    <name>, while you and the pridelings were taking care of the skymaster, Lakota Windsong came by. She told me to tell you to meet her east at the Twilight Bulwark. That must be where they're holding Magatha Grimtotem.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Break Them OutThousand Needles · Level 15-30

    Magatha's not the only one that the Twilight's Hammer have taken prisoner. While you're up there to the south, you should break as many of them out as you can.
