Step into the pool and click on the Sun Pearl in your bags.

Iwas told to stand in the blue water spouts five timesto complete this. After doing this ten times or so nothing happens.quest log says complete but cant turn it in. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?
Solved. Once I checked my logs again, I found that the quest can be completed directly from the quest logs, no need to try and find anyone to turn in to. I'm assuming this happened due to an addon I have installed that changes the quest log / map. I think default UI would have popped up the complete dialogue automatically. Once you complete the quest in the quest log, you the get another quest from Aysa Cloudsinger (standing on the bank nearby) to do the water spouts 5 times.

Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Sting of Learning
There are dangers in the pools. The latest and most vicious are the water pincers. A time has come for their numbers to be diminished, and I am no longer up to the task. If you could clear out some of the water pincers, I would be very appreciative. Beware their numbers...
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A New Friend
He wants you to play with him. Go for it!
