Description
I am told that the mogu once possessed hundreds of hidden armories full of earth-shattering weapons. When a mogu army prepared for war, they struck fear and terror into the hearts of their enemies. THIS is the knowledge I seek here on Pandaria! I have sent an expedition to study some ruins to the west, but they work as slowly as dim-witted peons! Go speak to Fanlyr Silverthorn, their leader. Tell him that I want to see results immediately.
