What to do
Cross the ropes and speak to Aysa Cloudsinger on Morning Breeze Lake.
The quest giver's words
Aysa has been meditating on the lake since we've arrived, all her thoughts focused on Dafeng. I don't know what she hopes to discover out there, but she's no fool, and Master Shang Xi has entrusted this task with her.
You will need to cross the ropes leading from the end of the dock to reach her. It shall test your balance, but I think you're up to the task, <name>.
Completion
I'm impressed. Most students that are even capable of reaching this spot do so soaking wet.

What you need
Nothing: no quest item is handed out and none is required to start.
The reward
No item reward.
- Money
- 1s 75c
- and 3s 90c more at level 90, the level cap, in place of the experience
- Experience
- 625

at level 12 or lower; less above
By character level
Level Experience Share 5–12 625 100% 13 500 80% 14 380 60% 15 250 40% 16 130 20% 17–89 65 10% 90 none 3s 90c more money The game pays the full figure up to five levels above the quest, then 20 % less for each level more, down to a tenth, and none at the level cap. A bonus of your own (a guild perk, a holiday) comes on top.
The listed figures and the players here disagree, so both are shown rather than one picked.
- Experience: players were paid 65% more than the 625 listed. An experience bonus (heirlooms, a guild perk) pays more; a character well above the quest's level earns less.

What players recorded
Everything below this line is a different kind of knowledge from everything above it. Above: what the quest is, the same on every realm. Below: what actually happened when people played it, uploaded by them, with the number of runs printed against every figure. It is an observation, not a fact about the quest.
This guide rests on 1 completed run. That is enough to show where people went and not enough to trust the timings – treat them as one player's evening.
How precise this guide is
Early guide Built from 1 run by 1 player – low confidence. Every upload of this quest sharpens it: the hotspots tighten, the order and the timings settle, and the parts below unlock as the sample grows.
- Where to go – pick-up, objectives and hand-in available
- Typical time and objective order – median and middle half needs 3 completed runs (now 1) not yet
- Tips – what most players do needs 5 runs (now 1) not yet
- Where players die – death hotspots on the map needs 5 characters from at least 2 different people (now 1 from 1) not yet
Timings
Based on 1 completed run. Published by the analyser – low confidence.
Same 1 run; mean 1 min 8 s.
Counting every recorded attempt, finished or not.
0 tracked kills, typically 1,031 XP, done around level 9.
The route
An early route: drawn from the first runs and sharper with every upload. Pick-up, hand-in and the objective hotspots are where the quest is, so they are shown from the first run.
Map coordinates are the addon's own 0–1 zone coordinates (The Wandering Isle), origin top-left, x to the right and y downward. Drag the zone map to pan, ctrl/⌘ + scroll or the buttons to zoom; the grid lines are tenths of the zone.
