A Natural Occurrence (Horde)

Take the Elemental Shard to an Earthen Ring Emissary in Orgrimmar, Undercity, Thunder Bluff or Silvermoon.

• Rift Shard (Provided)

This Elemental Shard is all that is left from the rift that stood here before. The connection between the shard and the rift is unknown, but perhaps someone more versed in the elements would know more.

Seek out an Earthen Ring Emissary in any capital city. This could be exactly what they are looking for.

You will receive:

You said you found this near an Elemental Rift?

Yes,, this shard does explain the occurrence of the rifts. The elemental planes have been in chaos in Outland ever since Draenor was destroyed. These shards cause a weakness in the already damaged elemental planes and allow the elementals to cross over.

We're still collecting information on who or what is behind all of this. However, the more shards you bring me, the better prepared we will be to fight the elemental invasion here in Azeroth.

The rifts are occurring throughout the world. For the latest list of locations, see Tripping the Rifts
