I took a chance and handed this one in. You do indeed lose your 20 fragments.
Incredibly NOT worth it, until you have all of the possible Mogu results and don't even care about trying for pristines.

Description
Ah, an explorer. Just what I could use. I am on the verge of discovering the dark secrets of the mogu. Not all of the secrets, mind you. They kept a lot of dark secrets. But I am on the verge of discovering "a" secret at least. If, in your travels, you come across some fragments of the mogu past, bring them to me and I will happily reimburse you for them.
