Aiji the Accursed rare is located in Sunken Path / Xal'vor Nazmir on Zandalar isle.

You will see [object=287081] with An Ancient Curse quest near the rare location.
Take it and it will spawn 5 altars in the Xal'vor ruins.
You need to activate all 5 to summon the Aiji the Accursed.
They are located in ruined buildings in Xal'vor ruins.
Face rare from quest pick up side and you can find glyph:


  1. Right in front of the rare.

  2. Near the closest ruined house to the left

  3. To the right of the rare position, inside a house with walls

  4. To the right and a little bit behind (north east)

  5. To the right same as before but a little bit further behind in house down the stairs

Apparently, the quest was slightly altered, cause the previous comments mention GLYPHS you have to walk over. Nowadays it's BRAZIERS you have to "touch" with your cursor that turns into a hand when mousing over it. You can only interact with them, until they're lit. So if you see a blueish swirly flame arising from a brazier, then it has already been activated by someone else. Nothing left to do here. Move along!

Once all 5(!) braziers were activated by whoever and have that blueish swirly thingy appearance, the rare will show up in the stone circle and you can kill it.

Description

<The harsh conditions of Nazmir have not been kind to the stone tablet. Most of the inscriptions have been worn away but you are able to make out a picture that shows a chest surrounded by glyphs. Above the chest you noticed what appears to be a large floating skull. Below the images you find a single word "Aiji". The ruins ahead seem foreboding, and you may want to bring some friends to help you. With their help, perhaps you can find the secret of this "Aiji" and its treasure within.>
