Hail Ernax the Scholar on the first floor of the library in Paineel. He wll ask to leave him be because he his reading about mana storage devices.
Tell him 'I wish to speak to you on a matter of the soul', he answers he hasn't heard anyone say that in a while and is surprised that you want to follow the legacy of azraxs.
Ermax gives you a Tattered Book and asks you to follow and write down the instructions on it and then give the book back to him. Give the book back to Ernax and you get a Soul Trap Box, a 4 slot container with a combine button.
The book explains how to make a Soul Trap. The needed components are a bloody mantle, the heart of a druid of reknown, and a crystal of capturing. These items need to be combined in a Soul Trap Box (which he gives you.) The book also says that the completed Soul Trap miust be given to the soul you wish to manipulate.
The bloody mantle comes from the assassin, which is a level 50 mob that randomly spawns from Faydwer to the Karanas, to Everfrost.
The druid of reknown is Alicia Peaceheart in Gfaydark, who drops a heart when killed.
The crystal of capturing is made by Jalen Goldsinger the Tox forest. Ernax the Scholar in the Paineel Library asks not to be bothered as he is studying mana storage devices. When asked about a crystal of capturing, he responds that Jalen Goldsinger in the Tox forest can make them. When hailed, Jalen Goldsinger only comments about the murkyness of Tox forest. But when asked about the Heretics or about a Crystal of Capturing, Jalen says that he will make you one if you will bring him some of the components. He requires a Potion of Sorrow and 1000 gold.
Jalen Goldsinger says, 'Excuse me while I add some other items to this mix. There. Finished. Here you go, and thank you for your business.'

The potion of sorrow is obtained from Gorth Bearsoul in Halas. He is the new barbarian in the torc shop who, when hailed, always responds with something about "not bothering a man when he is making potions" or some such. Ask him about the potion of sorrow and you get: "Ach! What ye be needin that fer? Only those of dark magic require such a thing and by my mother, never could i sell to such a soul. If yer soul be clean then put yer (money) in this enchanted pouch and i will know your intent. If yer soul be rotten i'll be known and you'll be dead. Indifferent I better be to your actions." Following up on the money hint gets you: "Suren ye didnae think I'd give ye a potion fer free? I'm needn 500 gold coins to make such an item. Hard to make and few are the uses fer such a potion." Give him 500gp and you get a Potion of Sorrow (magic item, lore, no drop).
Combine these items in the box and give the completed soul trap to the Tormented Soul (must have a faction of at least kindly) and you will receive a Mantle of Souls. Completing this quest supposedly will greatly increase your faction with the Lich Miragul.
You say, 'Hail, Tormented Soul'
Tormented Soul says, 'Whaaat foool does seek counsel with this spirit?'

Tormented Soul says, 'Ahhh. Sweet release. Wait... What is this? No! Do not bind me to this filthy bit of leather! Release! Curse you and curse Azrax to damnation!'
