TheWoWDBFor anyone confused on how to get here (like I did lol), Fly to Grassy Cline in Valley of the Four Winds, there is a little passage neatly disguised near the mountains north of the flight master. If you look on your map you can see a narrow path with dots, those are the stairs. How this helps!

I'd like to point out that the "path of a hundred steps" actually has 115 steps, give or take a few.
The name should be changed.
There is now a drop-down map for it in your Map Browser!
