Make sure you have your disguise on. You have to use it before you go in. It will show up on your extra action bar. I am an idiot.
Probably for the good of the mission, but I was slightly disappointed that Kelly didn't react to me having Mr. Bigglesworth at my side.

Description
Now that you have your disguise--and I have assurance of your loyalty--it is time you reported to your new master. Find Kel'Thuzad within the Vault of Souls. Do whatever tasks he requires of you, but keep your eyes open for anything untoward. My oculus will continue to accompany you so that I can provide guidance when the time is right. We will uncover this new baron's true intentions.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Fitting Guise
The ritual to complete your disguise should be quite simple with the assistance of my oculus. Even a <class> like you should be able to manage it. When you are ready, simply hold the empowered crystal above Nelesis's corpse. My oculus will do the rest.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
