A Matter of Time is a quest offered by Chromie, a dragon that looks like a gnome, who asks you to help her repair time in Andorhal.
Objectives
Use the Temporal Displacer near one of Andorhal's silos and uncover Temporal Parasites.
Slay 10 Temporal Parasites, and then return the Temporal Displacer to Chromie in the Andorhal Inn, Western Plaguelands.
- Temporal Parasite slain (10)
[Temporal Displacer] (provided)
Description
Tampering of the timeline by a sinister force - most likely the Scourge - has occurred in Andorhal! I can try to keep the passage of time here intact and mend what has been damaged, but I'll need your help to do so uninterrupted.
Temporal parasites - carrion that feed on the strands of time's altered flow - now infest the silos of Andorhal. A blue pulse of distortion is their only visual marker. They slow my auguries; please <name>, help me by using this temporal displacer to root out these parasites.

Progress
Temporal parasites are a common malady present wherever the flow of time has been tampered with. I sense that many are present, and this is disturbing.
Rooting out whatever ones you can find will help me be able to take a better hold on the deteriorating temporal situation here. I will be able to sense when this has been achieved.
Completion
Time feels easier to mend now, thank you <name>. While you might not understand fully the consequences of a fractured timeline, I appreciate that you understand the urgency of countering what I suspect more and more to be a Scourge-driven malfeasance.
I see no harm in rewarding you for your assistance, mortal. Your greatest feats are to come, and the awarding of a bauble will certainly not alter your future destiny. Your continued aid, however, is something that I and the dragonflight could use...
Notes
The silos are the blue-glowing towers near the edges of Ruins of Andorhal. Using the Temporal Displacer near one will cause 2 to 4 Temporal Parasites to spawn and start attacking. There is a chance for further slugs to spawn whenever you kill one of the first spawn.
- Temporal Parasite is summoned through a temporal rift!
