Description

<As you observe the shrine, it's quite clear that the central jewel is badly broken and in need of replacement. You reference your notes on the shrine and discover that these jewels came from a "golden sanctuary". Given your location, that can only mean Atal'Dazar. Perhaps you could find a replacement from that ancient city.>

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Inside the dungeon: Atal'Dazar

For millennia, the Zandalari kings were laid to rest within the tombs of Atal'Dazar, secluded high atop the mountain Mugamba. These pyramids grew more elaborate with each passing ruler, as new rooms were constructed to house the deceased's vast wealth.

Bosses in the Adventure Guide, in order: Priestess Alun'za, Vol'kaal, Rezan, Yazma.

Entrance: Zuldazar at 43.3, 39.5.
