If you happen to walk out of the place like i accidentally did don't turn around and run back.
You will end up in the instance instead of where you should be.At the bottom of the stairs to the left of the temple you'll find an NPC called Elder Sage Wind-Yi.
Speak to her, she'll give you the option to go to the temple.
And port you right back to where you should be.Hope this helps

If you /pet any of the serpents, a heart flutters above their heads.

Description
Have you seen the young serpents in the training yard? The littles ones tend to be mischievous, and some of them ran off to play before the training session. The Mistress will get angry if she discovers they're missing. Would you go find them and bring them back to me? I don't want them to get into trouble. They like to play out in the open, so look for them in courtyards and around the spires.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Librarian's Quandary
Lorewalker Stonestep is in charge of the entire temple library. Lately, something has been troubling him and his work. With thousands of ancient tomes to be transcribed, I can't afford to have him distracted. Would you follow the path south to the library and see what ails him?
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Lighting Up the Sky
Do you like fireworks, sir? I love them! In older times we would set them off to frighten away demons, but I just like them because they're pretty! I think there are still some old launchers lying around the temple. Would you go set off some big fireworks for me? It would make me so happy!
