To unlock this daily quest giver, you must complete 4/9 chapters in the Chains of Domination campaign, which unfortunately requires that character to complete a Covenant Campaign. It's a pretty big time investment (took me about 2 hours) from the basic Korthia skip on my alt.

Requirements

Description
The repositories of knowledge within Korthia have layers of security--for very good reasons. Each vault requires cryptographs in order to decode and disable the barriers. They are, for lack of a better term, the keys to every secret. Search outside the Vault for cryptographs stolen by the Mawsworn and return them to me. I will keep them, and the secrets they protect, safe.
Where to go
