This quest was bugged for me the first time I tried it. Maybe someone else was doing it but there was already a ghost kneeling in front of the brazier. When I came back a second time the brazier was empty, I used the quest item and the ghost showed up and the quest went smoothly. This quest was bugged for me the first time I tried it.

Description
This ought to be enough to break the bonds that hold your newfound ally.
<Ve'nari pauses for a moment.>

Notes
The Forge Of Bonds - Quest - World Of Warcraft
Back into Torghast, south to the oubliette, and speak with the Runecarver:
- Did you a discover a way to free me?

I've found a way, but we only have one shot at it. Let's get you free!

A cutscene plays as the Maw Walker channels the anima into the Runecarver's right shackle, freeing that hand before the item shatters.
Forge Of Bonds
- Runecarver says: Yes... Yes! Bonds weakening...
- Runecarver says: A taste... of freedom. A place to start.
Speak with Runecarver again:
- Have you recovered any more of my memories?
- The more you find, the more both of us shall benefit.
- I'd like to craft a legendary item.
- I'd like to upgrade my legendary item.
