Part of the Rogue Class Hall quest line requires you to grab this from the Maw of Souls instance. The location is between the first and second bosses in the lower floor of the ship, and it will show up on your map. If your group only clears the left side you can stealth to it and grab it without being caught if you do it while the True Sight patrol is gone.

You get to keep it after you turn in the quest.

Here's what's written (including a typo or two from the original):

Huginn an Muninn perched on a branch overlooking their master. The big vrykul sat relaxed below eating a particularly lush plum while reading from ancient tablets. The juice from the fruit went drip, drip, drip upon the stone as one turned to the other and cawed.

"What does it say? What is he reading?" asked Muninn.

Huginn bobbed his head up and down, peering intently with one eye at the rune stone below.

"I cannot read!" the large raven exclaimed. "You know this. Why do you taunt me?" Huginn pecked in frustration at his companion.

Muninn defecated, missing the vrykul below by mere inches.

"We should get him to fashion us something. An eye... caw!" Muninn insisted

Huginn agreed with his own caw as the vrykul peered up at the two ravens whom only he could understand.

"If you two will give some peace, I will make you something will you read anything your little bird brains desire," Havi said. "Now be quiet."

Time passed, but differently for the racens as it does for all immortals. They spent centuries reading everything they could get their hands on through the lens of their precious Raven's Eye. Counless days were spent deciphering old, weatherworn runic carvings in languages long since dead. They were happy. Well, as happy as ravens can be, which is to say, no one believes that they can ever truly be happy. Not even ravens.

The the day came when the stranger arrived. An elf, one of those new kaldorei, the night elves as everyone else was referring to them. The little people were always so much more annoying than the vrykul. But somehow, this one was different. And he had something in his hand that was the sweetest smelling thing they had ever experienced.

"What is that you have there, my fine-feathered friends." the bearded kaldorei asked.

"Caw!" was the reply that he received, as only their master could understand them. But, the power of the Raven's eye allowed them understand him perfectly. They had long ago learned all of the languages of the small mortal races.

"The three of us share something in common, for my name is Ravencrest. You might say we are kin after a fashion," the night elf explained, his voice strangely soothing." May I try read that tablet? It looks awfully interesting." And with that, the elf slowly edged a little closer to see the runes written upon the stone.

Huginn and Muninn were transfixed by the smell of whatever mysterious delight this Ravencrest held in his closed fist. Their heads bobbed up and done uncontrollable to try and get just the slightest peek at what it might be. They let him move closer.

What danger could a mere elf pose?

The night elve's brow furrowed and he frowned. He was staring at the tablet that the ravens had been reading, a funny story about a stupid little boy and girl who were tricked by a clever vrykul witch and then eaten.

"Alas, I cannot read this. I do not know the ancient runes of the honorable and proud vrykul people," the Ravencrest confessed. He sighted loudly and his shoulders slumped. "I know that ravens are the smartest of all Azeroth's creatures, but how is it that the two of you can read this timeworn scrawl?" he coyly asked.

Muninn, ever the suspicious one, pierced the stranger with a look from this left eye, only darting a quick glance once or twice, perhaps three times, at the elve's closed hand to make certain that whatever was in there had not disappeared.

But, before the doubtful bird could stop him, his more trusting brother gave their secret away. Huginn rapped three times upon their most prized possession. Despite the sharpness of the raven's beak, no scratch marred the facets of the perfect, magical jewel.

"Oh, how wonderful! Are you saying that bauble allows you to read the stone?" the sly elf queried. The two birds sat staring at him, their chests puffing up and their hackles rising.

"No, no, friends, you mistake me. I only wish to borrow your jewel. Please, let use it to read the runes," the elf requested. "After, we all have a lifely discussion about whatever story is written upon the stone. In return, I will give you this."

The Ravencrest finally revealed what he had been concealing within his hand. To the ravens, it was perhaps the most amazing thing they had ever seen or smelled, second only to Havi's jewel.

Slowly, the kaldorei placed the hard piece of elven candy on a nearby rock. The ravens twisted their heads back and forth between the jewel, the elf, and the treat. But, it was not long before their nature overtook them and they hopped over to the rock. The candy was delicious, better than anything they had ever eaten, even the food of the gods within the Halls of Valor. They pecked and nibbled at the pieces for what seemed a heavenly age.

When they were done, the two looked up expectantly, hoping that their newfound friend had another piece of the sweet. But, the elf was nowhere to be seen and neither was the Raven's Eye.

Huginn and Muninn cawed and cawed as loud as they could. And as they took wing, they vowed a solemn oath to one day have their revenge upon the trickster elf and all of his kind.

When doing the quest line in Stormheim with Havi as a guide the ravens will do emotes to the character. I didn't think much of this when I went there with my undead characters, but when I got there with my night elf I reacted on that the ravens showed displeasure with my presence.
At first this puzzled me, I tried to remember what they had emoted around my undeads but couldn't remember, all I was pretty certain of was that it was different.

Then I did this quest on my rogue and I read the story. Now it all made sense. They only show negative emotes when the player is a night elf.

Nice touch, I'd say.

Commentaire de needaprest

same here can we delete this?

Commentaire de Empi3

Well.. I just put it on sale in the AH.
Maybe others can just buy it from there to complete the quest and resell it later.
Any volunteers to try?

Not gonna lie, this was an enjoyable read.

Huginn and Muninn are "real". They are Odin's birds in the Norse mythology. They go out at sunrise and get back at sunset, sit on Odin's shoulders and whisper to him what they've found, what they've seen, everything they experienced around the world that day.

Blizzard didn't even bother to change up the names somehow, interesting.

Two things -

1. Love this so much, and a great explanation of why Ravens can learn to speak. "Snow! Snow! Snow!"

2. Those typos can't have been intentional, right? I mean... if they were intentional, they'd be consistent, and hopefully funny or endearing in some way... flavor text usually is. But this - yikes! Makes me sad that the QA Testing isn't better at Blizzard.

You can safely destroy this item from your inventory after the quest is complete.

This is not the kind of writing you find on a stone tablet. This is the kind of writing you find in a novel. Who makes a stone novel?

Commentaire de Shantey

Thought I would put my 2 cents in here... noticed it goes for 5200g on my server. Not sure if it's going to occur to anyone to check the AH before hitting the dungeon but I'm going to give it a try before I just toss it out....
