First shine wasn't active/working for me, until after doing the next two and then it worked fine.

Doing this quest in Remix, I had an issue with Lorewalker Cho not showing up in order to turn in the quest. I had to fly a bit aways from the area and back to get him to spawn. Just wanted to make a note of this in case anyone else was having the same issue.
Anyone having any issues with any off the shrines - just run back down to the base of the mountain and make your way back up and make sure to avoid all obstacles. It should work fine for you after that.

Description
I'm sure your pandaren friend has some ideas about what the mogu are after. He headed up the mountain a few days ago without a guide, and asked that only you be sent up after him. He was very specific: "The {class} must endure the trek alone, with only his thoughts. He will honor each shrine before meeting me at the top." The path is just northwest of the camp, marked by flags. Please be careful! Seeker's Folly is a dangerous trek even on a lucky day.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- One Traveler's Misfortune
Did you have to throw our supplies at them?! Why not use your weapon? Maybe fancy spells or kicks? Why the supplies?! Now we don't have enough to last us, especially with Nephew Bentnail here. His appetite is like a yeti's! You threw it, you get us more. There is wreckage down the path.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Tongue of Ba-Shon
Thank you for coming, <name>. I am sorry to have been so cryptic, but I could not risk alerting the mogu to my work here. They are seeking something in the valley. Plundering the tombs of their old kings for relics of power.
