I did this quest a while ago (about 2 months or so). I had no idea about how hard it was, so I tried it solo (I don't read spoilers unless I realy have to). So when he told me to drop the illusion, I did. When we exited the keep the elite commander aggroed me while he was busy with about 3 other. I managed to hold my guy long enough (use my HS and Heal potion) until my escort came in, HEALED ME, and proceded to kick more ass. After that, we had not problems reaching the tower together. During his conversation with the Mage/Inquisitor guy, he did say, I have to handle this on my own, you protect yourself. He and his targets were not attackable, ie you can't realy help him there, even if you want. Needless to say I got owned by the elite guards pretty quick, but I didn't release to see what happens. After he died, I though I failed and was about to release when I saw his father turn up so I watched some more. After his father kicked some ass I saw the ? I thought maybe I didn't realy fail after all. So I released, ran back and he was still there. I'm still wearing the cloak of the exile, that was one of the best quests I have done, there are some screens on my guild website with me and my budy in action.

So the quest was not that vague, I managed to solo it on first try, without any spoilers, even tho I got owned at the end big time.
