The quest giver's words
You've done us a huge favor here, traveler.
Now that we have enough jade to complete the statue, we should send word of our progress to Yu'Lon, the Jade Serpent.
When you arrive, speak to Elder Sage Wind-Yi outside the entrance to the Temple of the Jade Serpent.
If you wish to speed your journey, speak to Kitemaster Shoku. I'm sure he can spare an extra kite for you.
Progress
Yes?
Completion
You bring news from the Serpent's Spine?
<The Elder Sage patiently listens to your tale of what occurred at the Jade Mines and at the large jade statue.>
Thank you for coming all this way, stranger. However, I cannot allow you to speak to the Jade Serpent right now.
The ancient one is very busy, and as you can see, is not here at the moment.

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.
Nobody has completed this quest with telemetry on yet, so there is no timing. Everything below is drawn straight from the 0 recorded attempts the hub has.
How precise this guide is
Early guide Built from 0 runs by 0 players – 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 needs one recorded run not yet
- Typical time and objective order – median and middle half needs 3 completed runs (now 0) not yet
- Tips – what most players do needs 5 runs (now 0) not yet
- Where players die – death hotspots on the map needs 5 characters from at least 2 different people (now 0 from 0) not yet

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 Jade Forest), 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.
