Barring Entry

==Objectives==
Speak to Lao Softfoot at the entrance to Ruins Rise and follow him up the trail. Then, plant the Explosive Keg at the Ruins Rise Cave Entrance.
*Speak to Lao Softfoot 
*Explosives planted
*Explosive Keg (provided)
==Description==
Lao Softfoot and I scouted up the ruins to the north.
It looks like the mogu are infiltrating the valley through a cave just up the hill, and already they are sending formidable reinforcements through.
There are too many enemies to take them head on, so you'll have to meet Lao Softfoot at the entrance to the ruins.
He'll help you sneak in under the cover of stealth. Then, plant this keg of explosives at the mouth of the cave.
The rest should take care of itself.
==Rewards==
You will receive:
*
* 236000 XP
* +150 reputation with Golden Lotus
==Progress==
Is the cave closed?
==Completion==
Wonderful, <name>!
You and Lao have single-handedly crippled the mogu advance.
That is called working smarter, not harder.
==Notes==
Pick up Out with the Scouts before heading out.
Head out into the ruins to the northwest and start killing a path to the north. At the base of the Ruins Rise, just to the east, is Lao Softfoot, watching endless waves of five elite Shao-Tien tyrants and a magi walking down the path. Rather than attempting to constantly face them all, speak with Lao:
:Tread Softly. Danger lurks ahead.

Lao enables his Shadow Curtain, which drops himself and friendly nearby units into stealth with +200% movement speed. The curtain has a small radius, centered on Lao, marked on the ground. Stay within it! He will do what he can to stay away from the waves.

A red arrow points at the mouth of the cave. Wait until the wave passes by, run in, drop the explosives, and run back to Lao. Once the keg explodes, the waves of mogu will fade out.

Head back to camp.
Note that it is entirely possible to fly up, talk to Lao, then fly up to the mouth of the cave without having to stealth all the way up there...
