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

Description
Since you were so helpful at the mines, would you be willing to help us with a small problem here at the temple? Wise Mari has been complaining recently of a disturbance in his temple. The water elementals have gotten quite playful recently, and made off with his ceremonial staff. If you could help him, I would be most grateful. I may even put in a word with the Jade Serpent for you. Just follow the path to the north.

Before this quest

- The Temple of the Jade Serpent
You've done us a huge favor here, traveler. Now that we have enough jade to complete the statue, we should send word of our progress to Yu'Lon, the Jade Serpent. When you arrive, speak to Elder Sage Wind-Yi outside the entrance to the Temple of the Jade Serpent.

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?
