To free Vanthir you have to find [npc=115607] first and loot [item=142281] from his body. [npc=115607] can be found at 47.0 65.8 point in Suramar city, on a "bridge". Kill him, take the orb and tracel to 48.9 67.1 point (dont jump down from the bridge), there you'll se an arch, Vanthir is under that arch in a cage. Free him and wait until he finished his speach, then you'll be able to turn in the quest.

Don't worry too much about how much HP the guy you have to kill has. You'll get allied npcs to fight with you after you engage. He doesn't hit too hard either.

Description
His captor is familiar to me. He is one of Aluriel's lieutenants and a skilled spell-fencer at that. You will need Silgryn's help to retrieve the key to Vanthir's prison. Our friend's life hangs in the balance. Even if we manage to wrestle him from the executioner's grasp, he may well Wither before we can act. I need you to take an Arcan'dor fruit to him. They are precious, and few, but for Vanthir this is the only chance he has. Go quickly, and good luck.

Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- On Public Display
Now that I have identified Vanthir's essence from the multitude of Suramar's citizens, it may be that I can find his exact location. I believe you'll recall a similar ritual with our friend Theryn. Do not worry- there will be less screaming this time. Hopefully. Come.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Sign of the Dusk Lily
Simply... astounding. I have not felt this clear of mind in so long. I am still weak... I need to rest. But first... <Vanthir gestures to the top of his cage with a trembling hand.> Show them that the Dusk Lily triumphs this day.
