 [Preservationist's Dispatch]

The subject of this article or section is part of Secrets of Azeroth, a one-time event that unlocked over two weeks. The secrets revealed during the event are not time-limited and will remain permanently.

The inn of the Life-Binder Conservatory in the Waking Shores, bounded by lava

Securing an Artifact begins the fourth day of Secrets of Azeroth activities.

Completion

One of the Preservationist's colleagues left this note.

It says the Primalists are threatening the Life-Binder Conservatory and an important artifact is at risk. I need you to locate and secure it before the looters do.

The coordinates on the note should work with that funny looking "Thinking Cap" you have.

Rewards

You will receive:

•  [Preservationist's Dispatch]

Notes

The dispatch reads:

Preservationist's Dispatch

Kathos, we are worried about a new artifact we just learned about called the Torch of Pyrreth. It is rumored to empower various ancient mechanisms. It was locked away in the Life-Binder Conservatory.

We have these codes to help you, and a text that references a hearth in a building bounded by lava:
(15, 1)
(24, -18)
(19, -27)

Another entry lists these. Tithris commented this could be the torches location.
(-1, 0)

Hopefully you can figure out their meaning and find the torch before the Primalists.

An Ancient Lever at Life-Binder Conservatory

The Life-Binder Conservatory is west of Scalecracker Keep in northeastern Waking Shores. Enter the big inn building and head to ^{[54.7, 20.4]} to find the hearth. Reset the  [Tricked-Out Thinking Cap] to (0, 0) then navigate using cogs-bolts to find the three Ancient Levers:

Ancient Lever locations

#	Cogs-Bolts	Coords	QuestID
1	(15, -1)	[56.6, 20.3]	77401
2	(24, -18)	[57.7, 23.8]	77402
3	(19, -27)	[57.1, 25.6]	77403

To check whether the levers were pulled, copy and paste this command into chat:

/run local i,q=0;for q=77401,77403 do i=i+1;print('Lever '..i..': '..(C_QuestLog.IsQuestFlaggedCompleted(q) and 'YES' or 'NO')) end

The  [Torch of Pyrreth] in the hearth

After pulling all three levers, return to the inn. Inside the hearth on the left wall of the fireplace at ^{[54.6, 20.4]} is the  [Torch of Pyrreth], which immediately starts the  [60-70] Artifact Secured quest.
