Golden Lotus Captive.

Find a Shao-Tien Cage Key and free 6 Golden Lotus Prisoners.

[Shao-Tien Cage Key]
Free Golden Lotus Prisoners (6)

Description

The mogu have taken prisoners. They'll be tortured or worse.

Find any way you can to free them from their cages.

Rewards

You will receive:

19 84 50 2
236,000 XP
+100 reputation with Golden Lotus

Progress

I'd rather die than live as a mogu prisoner. They are not kind captors.

Completion

Many of those you saved are back here in camp recovering. You surely have their gratitude, and mine.

Notes

Keys are held by Shao-Tien dominators, soul-callers, and torturers. Find a key, then start freeing captives. They will fight beside you.
