First one is found behind the first boss, Thalnos the Soulrender.
The second is in the pool on the lower terrace of the monastery (if you get to the second boss, Brother Korloff, you've gone too far).

I was able to not only to collect the two blades, but complete the quest after completing the instance and everyone else had left.

You have to use the icon next to the quest description to use the two blades on the body.

The way I understand it is that anyone in your group who is on the quest can thrust the swords in Whitemane's corpse, and that you just need to be near it when that happens to get credit (assuming you're on the second half of the quest). The corpse cannot be stabbed multiple times since it opens that role play with Lilian Voss (I think that's who it was, wasn't paying much attention).

I would assume that if you're the only person in the group doing the quest, then you would be free to go back and finish the first quest once the bosses are dead and stab Whitemane's corpse because no one had done it already. This is untested, but after finally completing this quest last night (was blind and couldn't find first blade, lol) this is how it seems to me.

Picked up first quest and completed entire instance w/o getting swords..
Went back found the first sword, behind the first boss lying on his coffin.
Returned to cathedral court yard fountain.
There I received the second sword and received the quest to stick the corpse.
Went in cathedral, Lilan Voss was waiting by the corpse.
Twin Sword icon in objectives list would not activate when targeted on corpse.
I got error: "Requires the corpse of High Inquistor Whitemane"

So not able to complete quest if High Inquisitor is already dead and you go back and get swords.

If anyone else in your group is doing the quest and stabs Inquisitor Whitemane, but you're not on the final step of the quest, you will be unable to complete it. The item will return an error stating that you need her corpse, even though you're standing right in front of it. Don't forget to pick up the blades and get the quest moving forward BEFORE the final fight.

She can only be stabbed with the blades once per run, and it only counts as completed for those who are on the final stage of the chain. If you forgot to move the quest forward prior to her death, you will need to queue for the dungeon a second time in order to complete the quest.

Blades of the Anointed

Collect the two Blades of the Anointed.

	Blade of the Anointed

Description

The problem with the Scarlet Crusade is that they keep coming back, even after death.

Behind those resurrections is High Inquisitor Whitemane. With her death, so goes the Crusade.

To give her the final rest, we need two swords of legend, each with a lost but storied history.

Luckily for me... er, us, these two blades of the anointed are at rest here within the monastery.

Find them and once you've killed Whitemane, plunge the blades into her corpse to make the death permanent.
