Why the heck are we freeing her? If you're Horde, I think you know by now that she's responsible for Cairne's death. If you're Alliance, well... you just fought a bunch of Grimtotems on your way to get here, and they were hell bent on killing you.
She's evil. She should stay tied up. I don't get it. What am I missing?
I don't want to free her :( She killed Cairne (and she used Garrosh Hellscream for it!), she tried to murder Baine, she tried to take over the entire tauren community...
Blegh. I want the loremaster but I just don't like these kinds of quests.
She is more dangerous controlled by the Twilight's Hammer than free. I don't see why we dont just stab her though.

<name>, the bonds holding Magatha are specially encoded. She can only be released if we get those codes. There's a device near Codemaster Deethuk in the Bulwark to the southeast. It contains the codes. Please obtain them.

According to Magatha, she'll meet you just outside of the Twilight Withering to the east.
