The Essence of Aku'Mai

Collect 20 Sapphires of Aku'Mai.

• Sapphire of Aku'Mai (20)

Within the beginning tunnels of Blackfathom Deeps, there are large sapphire clusters along the cave walls. We noticed that the naga started harvesting the crystals around the same time their weaponry greatly improved.

The crystals seem to have great elemental power and, if used inappropriately, could make for a powerful component for my smithing.

Will you help me, ? Blackfathom Deeps can be found along Zoram Strand to the north of our outpost.

You will receive:

How goes your search for the crystals, ? Do you think they'll make an item we can use to stop the naga?

Excellent! These will do nicely. Here's a reward for your hard work.

• 1300 XP
• 250 reputation with Orgrimmar

This quest should be done together with Deep Despair. The crystals can be found along the tunnel that leads to the Blackfathom Deeps instance entrance. It is not a dungeon quest and can easily be completed solo.
