Description
Your kind have proved me wrong in the past, so I will give you a chance to do so again. The titan structure which houses the Engine of Nalak'sha spans the entirety of Pandaria. There are more ways to reach it than just the Mogu'shan Vaults. There are many such routes, but the closest would be through Mogu'shan Palace. The chambers beneath the palace are interconnected with the vaults. Seek your fate there, champion.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Proof of Tenacity
If the Highkeeper is so convinced that we don't stand a chance against our enemies, perhaps a show of force would sway him. I am not sure how you would manage, but if you could bring proof of a victory against those who threaten the Vale, it may convince him that action should be taken.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Restored Hope
Your persistence fills me with hope for this world. Let us return to your "Chamber of Heart." As the caretaker of the Forge of Origination, I believe I can help your efforts to restore it. Speak to me when you are ready, and I will bring us there.
