Hai-pu
Last wiki revision 2021-11-17
Hai-pu is a form of hozen writing. Small scrolls containing hai-pu can be found at various locations in Pandaria, and can be read by players. 5 different scrolls of hai-pu are currently known to exist.
Hai-pu seems to represent some sort of attempt by the hozen to pass down wisdom, or at least record certain important sentiments and realisations. As such, they can be considered to reflect and epitomise hozen culture's attitudes and values.
Hai-pu can be found at various locations, but generally in hozen areas. Hai-pu have been found in the following areas:
- Jade Forest, Grookin Hill
- Krasarang Wilds, Unga Ingoo
- Valley of the Four Winds
- Veiled Stair, Tavern in the Mists
- Kun-Lai Summit, Broketooth Outpost
While only 5 different hai-pu are known to exist, multiple scrolls containing each hai-pu can often be found in the world.
Hai-pu would appear to be inspired by, a form of Japanese poetry. Like haiku, hai-pu is composed of just three short phrases or lines of text, although the similarities may end there.
