Prying [item=84646] from a mogu statue head?
This quest is reminiscent of the cover of the AD&D 1st Edition Players Handbook, where two rogues pry the giant ruby eyes from a monstrous statue. LOL, good times.
Note that you can get both eyes separately from each head.
The Ruby eyes are in the eye sockets of heads lying around the sides of the lake pool. Can require a bit of patience, especially on busy servers, so I'd advise sitting at a head and camping it. I found the respawn to be about ~50 secs per eyesocket, so camping took me about 5-6 minutes total. Worth the wait, rather than swimming around watching others take my rubies.

Description
I've been staring down into the waters of the lake, pondering life, love, and everything beautiful, and suddenly I realized that the sparkles in the water aren't just a reflection of my radiant personality, there are actually some sort of shining objects down there! Surely valuable. Would you mind taking a drip and relieving the lake's depths of its mysterious sparkles? Pretty please?
