This quest is currently bugged, but slated for a fix soon™ [in true Blizz fashion]. In the meantime, if you accept this quest, LET THE CUTSCENE PLAY OUT FULLY AND DO NOT STRIKE THE ESCAPE KEY or you will phase-break yourself. GMs can fix it if you're already phase-busted for this and other Garrison Campaign quests. Hope this helps someone. :D
edit: i'll be removing this comment as soon as I've got confirmation on a fix on live servers

It appears logging out and back in fixed this for me and I was able to get Cleansing the Souls and The Totems That bind after the relog so that I could finish the campaign!
Yay! We unstoppable! We unstoppable!

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Soulgrinder Survivor
It is time for Borgal to die. We must travel to a location of power where I have room for the ritual. There is a ruined tower to the northwest that will be perfect for this. Meet us there and place the totems in the areas of power you will find there.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Cleansing the Souls
Not all spirits are destroyed by the Soulgrinder. Some souls manage to survive more or less intact like myself. Others have become twisted and maddened. End their misery, take my soul shard and use it to purify them.
