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.

[Beta]
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
