Data about active shrines

Wayshrines activate roughly every 10 minutes, and are clickable by only one person per activation. Being in a group (not raid) will grant credit for the quest if one person clicks the wayshrine.

These are used for this quest as well as Pilgrimage, granting one of four buffs, or causing a massive fire AoE that will pull nearby enemies.

The buffs and quotes for each are:


  • [spell=147281] "Though blood floods the ground, the mountain is unmoved."

  • [spell=147282] "The truth shines brightest in clouded times."

  • [spell=147283] "Hope's fire grows when the flames come together."

  • [spell=147284] "Strength and power are as different as sun and moon."


The AoE is


  • [spell=147285] "The shrine was corrupted by Ordos!"

Description

Many years ago, these grounds were a place where my people would come in pilgrimage. Here, they would listen to the words of the celestials, and meditate for many days. In their meditations, they found the fear, anger, despair, doubt, and violence that plagued their spirits. Before them would be a pathway to enlightenment. For each, the pathway would be different. For all of them, the pathway began with wisdom. Travel the island, as they did, and discover one of the lost wayshrines of the celestials.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Timeless NutrimentTimeless Isle · Level 30-35

    As you have surmised, the flora and fauna of this island are quite unusual. Not all explanations are mysterious, however. Sometimes, we must listen to the land, to hear the tales of the world around us.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Drive Back The FlameTimeless Isle · Level 30-35

    The pandaren once existed in harmony with the Ordon yaungol. When the island suddenly disappeared, the Ordon faced certain death. In their desperation, the chief shaman called out for aid to the Fire Lords, and was answered. Ordos was his name. Now, he is a creature of anger and violence.
