Retrieve the Ancient Mogu Artifact.

[Ancient Mogu Artifact]

Description[]

Hello, friend.

One of Leven's men brought word to me of a mogu artifact in the eastern ruins, but said he couldn't figure out how to retrieve it. I suspect it's guarded by one of their rune locks.

If you go to the artifact, you should find four runes somewhere nearby that when activated will release the lock. If you could bring the artifact back to me, I would be very grateful.

Rewards[]

You will receive: 19 84 50 2

Progress[]

Did you find the runes I was telling you about?

Completion[]

This is marvelous... very well preserved. Thank you very much, friend! I owe you for this.

Gains[]

236,000 XP
+100 reputation with Golden Lotus

Notes[]

Head up the path to the north. In the center of the eastern ruins area is the Ancient Mogu Artifact. In the general vicinity are blue runes on the ground. Step on them to deactivate them.
