TheWoWDBYou can use flying mounts to get down here, so unless you have some kind of parashute or slow fall magic, don't try jumping.

Description
This is remarkable work you've done! Especially for someone who hasn't taken my courses. These tablets provide new information on several subjects. They indicate that these obelisks are part of an enormous ancient mechanism that once kept this whole region masked from the rest of the world. They also depict how to recharge the mechanism, which is where your Shaft of the Stars comes in... Get ready, {name}. We have some history to make!
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.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Strange Disc
The etching around the surface of this object indicates that it is of ancient origins, and yet no signs of wear can be detected. A hole on its edge, full of splintered wood, indicates that it is meant to be put atop a wooden staff of some sort.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Thrill of Discovery
What a find! And somehow it's all remained untouched by plunderers... Listen, <name>. I need to document this site before we disturb anything. While I do, why don't you have a look around - you know, explore a bit. You've earned it. Keep your eyes open for anything unusual. Oh! And please...
