TheWoWDBYou must be in disguise to hand in the quest - for obvious reasons. If you're not in disguise, fight your way out of the basement with Kel'Thuzad, go outside, and if you run 10 yards or so from the door you'll be able to re-up the illusion via the action button.

Where to go

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Errant Enchantments
The House of Rituals is a place of constant study. Every day, new incantations and formulae are concocted to further the arts of necromancy. It can be difficult to keep track of such innovation. To aid in cataloguing our progress, our sorcerers have applied the use of enchanted quills and parchment.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Necessary Ingredients
As you are well aware, a ritual of this complexity requires several reagents. I have asked that Carver Jor'dan prepare what I'll need. Seek him out in the Reagentry, and provide whatever assistance he requests.

The House of Rituals has 25 steps, from House of Rituals to The Better Part of Valor.
