On the map, the Krasarang Wilds Point 72.20 31.10 is labeled as "Origins" when it is "Waiting for the Turtle"

Comment by wazaaqt

To be mentioned you cannot get exalted with 85lvl alt. You also cannot get quests done from missive scrolls, there is nowhere mentioned you need to be lvl90 to be able to accept em.

Got all the achis, but cannot accept the qs. Time was wasted.

Also repu is now 11736/12000 so cannot buy 50% repu boost either.

Things the guide doesn't make clear:

You can collect all the lore before Level 90, but you can't accept the quests before level 90 and, until you can accept the quests, the scrolls will just sit in your bags or your mailbox. Bottom line, it's best to wait until you are level 90 before collecting the pieces of lore.
The lore is learned by clicking statues and large scrolls scattered throughout Pandaria. If you haven't interacted with them yet, they will have a glowing, sparkling aura.
You don't need to dismount to learn the lore, which is helpful if there are hostile mobs nearby.
When you get done collecting all the lore you should have 9 pieces of mail from Lorewalker Cho. Each piece of mail will contain a scroll that starts a quest. Accept all the quests and you will have 9 quests to turn in to Lorewalker Cho in the Seat of Knowledge. Those quests are:
Between a Saurok and a Hard Place
Fish Tales
Heart of the Mantid Swarm
Hozen in the Mist
The Ballad of Liu Lang
The Dark Heart of the Mogu
The Seven Burdens of Shaohao
The Song of the Yaungol
What is Worth Fighting For
Lorewalker Cho is located on the second story of Mogu'shan Palace. To find him, face the entrance to the Palace and fly straight up until you see flying mounts on a balcony. Enter the door off the balcony to find Cho.
Interacting with Lorewalker Cho can be tricky. The most common problem is that someone else is speaking with him. It takes time for him to tell his stories, so be patient. Check his page if you are having other problems.
To reduce the amount of lore you need to reach Exalted, you can strategically collect enough lore to get to Revered and then buy the Grand Commendation of the Lorewalkers. You then need to figure out which lore you still need to reach Exalted and then go and collect them. But this is more trouble, and will take more time, than just collecting all the items at once.
If you are missing any pieces of lore check your achievements to find out which ones you are missing. The Lorewalker achievements are found in the Exploration/Pandaria section.
There are two non-lore quests that give Lorewalker's rep. They give so little rep that it's not necessary to complete them. But if you decide to do them anyway, you should know that they stop giving rep after turning revered:
The Lorewalkers (Horde) /The Lorewalkers (Alliance) - Breadcrumb quest to get you started, gives 20 rep. Requires unlocking most of the Pandaria factions.
Your Private Collection - A gimme quest inside the library. 100 Rep.
The Quartermaster, Tan Shin Tiao, is in the same room (The Seat of Knowledge) as Lorewalker Cho. He is sitting on the floor next to a tiger.
Disc of the Red Flying Cloud is account bound and once purchased is available for use by all your characters with any level of riding skill. It can even work as a ground mount. If you are only interested in the mount, you only need to become Exalted with the Lorewalkers on one character per account.
While the mount is sold as the Disc of the Red Flying Cloud, once you learn it, it's name is Red Flying Cloud.
Legend of the Brewfathers lore is sometimes found near the Lorewalker's lore but is not required for the The Lorewalkers achievement and can be skipped.
