What to do
Description
Did you feel that?! That was just an aftershock... you should've been here a few minutes ago! I'm afraid I must call upon your services again. My instruments indicate that there is an immense disruption just west of here, far beneath the water's surface. Just as before, I need you to take the arcanometer and capture the anomaly's data. I'll cast a spell that will enable you to breathe underwater. If it wears off before you find it, come let me know and I'll renew its effects.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Monitoring the Rift: Cleftcliff Anomaly
Greetings, <race>. I am Garren of Dalaran. Not long ago, the rift was a peaceful place - geothermally speaking at least. Recently though, earthquakes have occurred with alarming frequency and scars in the earth have appeared, exposing unique energy fields of chaotic power.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Monitoring the Rift: Winterfin Cavern
I need to compile my notes and prepare a presentation for my colleagues in Dalaran. While I do, I must ask that you visit the Winterfin Cavern to the north. You must use the Arcanometer while standing in the mouth of the cavern. Return to me at once when you have the data.
