Entrance at (47.72, 78.25)
I had to click off my disguise to attack quest mobs.
If you are like me, you have to stand on the fire near the portal in the cave with your disguise, so you get the acces to the portal. I was standing next to it, but that didn't work.

Description
The time has come at last. Deep within the cavernous underbelly of Karazhan lies a long-forgotten chamber. Based on what you learned from our demon friend, I believe this is where its mistress dwells. This demon's master must come from the highest ranks of the Burning Legion. This does not bode well for Karazhan. We need to secure Deadwind Pass, {name}. You must find this demon and destroy it.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Demon in Disguise
While you were... working your magic on that demon, I was able to make headway in distilling the corrupted essences down to a simpler, more manageable form.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Fragments of the Past
Though your primary objective is to liberate the tower from the Legion's hold, I have... another request. Karazhan is a place where magic and history intertwine. Moments of the past have been known to take physical form, and these forms can possess great power.
