Dawnblaze? Blackmail?
The info here is split between quest text and in-game dialogue, so pay attention to speech bubbles/chat if you want to follow the story.
As I was saying, the wardsmiths are led by Magister Dawnblaze. She inherited the vacant seat following the war but has proven inadequate since then.
She does not adapt to the new challenges the sin'dorei face. That is why I proffered myself to take her seat.
She has fabricated blackmail against me in an attempt to prevent this. You can see how this is a great injustice.
On the final platform, there should be an image of Magister Aradis, if the's not there, abandon and pick it back up from 53.32

What to do
Description
Dawnblaze is keeping the blackmail documents in her study. It is highly warded, naturally. The wards themselves are pitifully made. However, she is supplying additional power to them using arcane conduits placed throughout the city. I found the first link in the chain and brought it here to study. It is also warded, but weakly. I theorize that if the conduits are broken in sequence, then the shields on Dawnblaze's study will be vulnerable. Sabotage them, then recover the documents. Understood?

You will forgive the lack of pleasantries, as this situation requires prompt remediation. All you need know is that I am Aradis, wardsmith of Silvermoon. We are an order of Magisters who maintain the city's defenses. I am recovering from a...
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Outschemed
The entrance to Dawnblaze's study is in the terrace just beneath us. Since my magic can project this close to her wards, that means the magic guarding this place has been weakened... as I predicted. Break the larger ward sealing the entrance and find the documents she forged to slander me.
