To complete this quest, kill [npc=33289] in southern Crystalsong Forest. You'll find him in the mountains separating Crystalsong from Dragonblight, to the east of the ruined bridge. He is a unique spawn, so you may have to wait. Kill him and loot the [item=45005]. Fly to Winter's Breath Lake in northern Howling Fjord near the Taunka outpost there. The [npc=33303]is encased on a small island in its center. Use the ember on her to complete the quest.

Description

That's the last time I ever spar with a death knight. In southern Crystalsong Forest, overlooking the Crystal Vice's exit, you will find Lord Everblaze. Kill him and take the everburning ember from his corpse. Bring it to the center of Winter's Breath Lake in northern Howling Fjord, and use it to free the maiden encased in ice. She is the guardian of an ancient sword and will award it to whoever frees her. Prove your worth and earn the weapon that she has guarded for so long, {name}.
