If you die, don't release. The quest completed itself while I was reading the comments on this page :)
I don't know how you guys are getting it done, as a fire mage they over run me within seconds. I can't cast my spells fast enough to keep them down. Why would blizzard make it solo, without your guardian to help you and flood the room with damn imps. hard is one thing, but at least make it possible for people NOT geared out the hind end.
What is really the damn point to this quest, to see how much we can die? I died at least 5 times, the warlock performing the ritual never died, the imps never attacked him even when I was dead, ran back to just out side the room to rez, eat to bring my health back up and step in for him to "start the ritual" and imps come pouring though the portals again. However after the 5th (or so) death, the quest completed. WTF?
OK, as zenithstorm mentioned, the books tell you the names of the runes to use.Dregla is often used in rituals that draw upon large amounts of fel energy, but needs to be balance by arcane and death magics. Talar is used to empower arcane rituals. Taam can be employed in many rituals requiring powerful death magics. So, Dregla, for the power and Talar and Taam to balance it.

Description
Truthfully, the Council knows little of Agatha, but she is more than just your average succubus. She has many allies within the sayaad, and is known to command armies of imps that swarm and overwhelm her foes. To seek her out is folly, but Ritssyn Flamescowl repays his debts. Come, let us examine what manner of fel powers this little mage of yours was stumbling her way through...

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Bargaining with Shadows
From the clues you've been able to piece together, it appears that Levia was looking to conduct a ritual in the libraries beneath Dalaran - most likely to summon this "Agatha" she has become so infatuated with.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Dabbling in the Demonic
Levia must have used these runes to aid her ritual. Even if she is as powerful as Modera says, she was a novice in demonic magic, so the runes must have helped stabilize the portal. I'll need you to find out what runes need to be activated to recreate her ritual.
