TheWoWDBJust in case you are having issues... in order to get the turn in '?' over Loremaster Cho, I had to speak to Zidormi (just outside the chamber) and set the time to present (after assault).

Description
<The slain mogu clutches a sigil in his hand -- a symbol of the mysterious clan he belongs to. Perhaps if you could track down his clan, they may know more about the mantid's invasion of Mogu'shan Vaults and how they can be overcome. Lorewalker Cho is well known as font of lore for Pandaria. He may be able to track down the origins of the mogu's sigil.>

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- It's Never Easy
The last I heard, Mogu'shan Vaults was still abandoned. We shouldn't have too tough of a time reachin' the engine, since we've already defeated the mogu guardians in that place. Well, what are ye waitin' for? Let's get that engine turned on!
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Clans of the Mogu
You say a mogu asked for your help? This is quite uncharacteristic. I'd be happy to help you uncover the origins of this sigil. To be honest, the prospect of a mogu clan that isn't openly hostile interests me greatly. Just think of the possibilities! Let's get down to business.
The storyline at a glance
The Engine of Nalak'sha has 9 steps, from It's Never Easy to Magni's Findings.
Maps its steps are placed on (steps per map): Vale of Eternal Blossoms (6), Chamber of Heart (2), Kun-Lai Summit (1).
