Description

Queen Azshara seeks entrance into the plane of water, for what I do not know.

She believes that the ancients held the keys to finding its location.

I have personally been charged with scouring the ruins in this region, and none shall rest until we discover the secrets we seek!

Submerged just to the north are a concentration of ruins. Use this staff to search through the rubble.

Return to me only when you have located that which we seek!

For those wondering, the marking on the map is wrong. It's much farther north in the ruins all around Ranazjar Island. Little rocks like the picture above you use the stick on. You then loot the items that pop out of the rock and hope for fragments. And expect to be at it a while. Very low drop rate. For reference, I had 77 of the Illegiable versions and about 3-4 tablets drop per site. Add swim time (though as a naga is much faster) and finding the spots and it's quite annoying for a non-kill based quest.

Definitely map is marked wrong - it is anywhere from the southeast of the isle to the mainland shore.

Something that makes this quest CONSIDERABLY less annoying is that the staff a) has a range and b) can be used while moving. The rubbles are somewhat hard to pick out, but if you just swim around and spam the staff use, it'll shoot a big blue bolt and find the rubble for you.

Lol, I love this quest now, my RL friend all of a sudden calls me on skype and he's new to WoW so he's like "OMFG! I've spend 3 !@#$ing hours on this lame-ass quest" and I have already explained to him if he has a problem, he should go to wowhead, and when I asked him about that he said he didn't know how to use it. So I go on Wowhead for him to check out this quest, and I find out he only needs 4 of thoose fragments, and I ask him "So, how many did you collect? Because you just need four to make the quest".. Then he went quiet for a moment before telling me he had collected 80 of the *!@#ing things.. I laughed so much I fell of my chair. Litterally :D

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Wetter Than WetDesolace · Level 10-30

    Neptulon's minions have arrived here and are doing all they can to thwart us. Clearly, they've discovered our motives. This only confirms my suspicion that what we seek is indeed somewhere in these ruins! These water elementals are no match for our forces!

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Mystery SolvedDesolace · Level 10-30

    Your efforts have paid off. The great risks you have taken have proven worthwhile. You have discovered the object of the nagas' desire and their reason for overrunning the coast of Desolace. As for the engravings you've discovered, your duty is clear...
