the keys are a high drop rate from the gjalerbron around 35,12 , and the mobs have a chance to drop a large key which opens the larger prison in the center of that area

mind the patrolling overseers, elites hurt :( they had a low aggro radius at the time of writing this though

Pre-requisite to get this series of quests is the completition of:

All Hail the Conqueror of Skorn!
http://wotlk.wowhead.com/?quest=11250

Quest rewards are wrong as well... *sigh*

You will be getting 20100 experience points.
You will be awarded 4 Gold 70 silver (not 14 Gold 36 Silver).
And you will earn 250 reputation with the Valiance Expedition.

Note this will also open another chain, the NPC Mage-Lieutenant Malister will "whisper" you, opening the following quest:

Sleeping Giants:

A Reference to the book "Of Mice and Men" written by John Steinbeck.

Thats what I think anyways.

Comment by Valdan

Be advised no sense in collecting keys for those of you thinking you can save them being they stack in lots of 20 to help future players in guilds they are taken out of your bags and or key rings upon turning the quest in.

Gnomedalf posted this on the horde version of this quest, but I think applies to the Alliance just as much if not more.

""When opening cages make sure you see what kind of prisoners they contain, to avoid accidently freeing a gnome.""

Dont bother going underground with the undead guys.

Comment by FlyingStratus

If you get lucky you might get a Large Gjalerbron Cage Key (golden vs the silver "normal" key). As the tooltip states, it unlocks the large cage in the middle of Gjalerbron. There appear to be 5 prisoners in the large cage. When I unlocked the cage, it finished this quest for me (I needed 4 more prisoners at the time). The large cage is located at 35.9, 11.4. The large key dropped from one of the npcs near 33,14.

Comment by RedWingToto

I just did this quest and didn't get a single regular key to drop. I did get two large keys and was able to finish that way.

Of Keys and Cages

Father Levariol has asked you to collect enough Gjalerbron Cage Keys to free 10 Gjalerbron Prisoners. Return to him at Westguard Keep when you manage to do so.

	Gjalerbron Prisoner Freed (10)
	Gjalerbron Cage Key (1)
	Large Gjalerbron Cage Key (1)

Description

The captain may not care, but from the little we know, the vrykul are conducting heinous rites in some sort of 'awakening' ritual up north in Gjalerbron.

They're using living sacrifices to fuel their unholy rituals!

<class>, you must put a stop to this! It matters not who or what is in those cages, they must be freed. I'd bet that the vrykul hold the keys.

The Light knows the last thing we need is more of those strange vrykul walking about, or worse yet, them wakening something even more evil!
