Description

Not all of our soldiers made it out of Scourgeholme. Many were slain and turned into twisted reflections of their former selves. Such is the way of the Scourge. For those damned souls, there is no eternal peace. We must provide their souls rest.

Travel through the Breach into Scourgeholme and slay the skeletal reanimated crusaders. Sprinkle this holy water on their bones so that their spirits may be freed.

I didnt understand at first, but the mobs you need are the crusaders.

SyrioNov 29, 2008+10via Wowhead

If you're like me and did The Purging Of Scourgeholme before this quest (I didn't see the "!", or i just don't know if it was available) anyway just a few steps east right before the Breach there should be 8 Crusaders of Virtue. Stay there. The skeletons should come to them and they will kill them, throw in a few attacks if you want for loot.
When the skeletons die, just use the Holy Water that Father Gustav gives you.
