Secrets of the First Empire

Secrets of the First Empire starts the Patch 5.2 portion of Wrathion's legendary quest chain alongside I Need a Champion. Before Wrathion offers these quests, players must have completed the Patch 5.0 and Patch 5.1 portions of his quest, Breath of the Black Prince (quest) and Call of the Packmaster / The Soul of the Horde respectively.
Over the course of this portion of the story, Wrathion's champion must reach standing with him by killing mogu, saurok, Zandalari trolls, and members of the opposing faction on the Isle of Thunder, acquire twenty Secrets of the Empire from raid bosses in the Throne of Thunder, unlock the Thunder Forge, and kill the world boss Nalak. Wrathion will then offer his champion a legendary meta gem in The Crown of Heaven, before asking for twelve Titan Runestones, which are found on the last six bosses in the Throne of Thunder.
==Objectives==
Collect 20 Secrets of the Empire and 40 Trillium Bars.
*Secrets of the Empire × 20
*Trillium Bar × 40
==Description==
For two thousand years the mogu ruled this entire land. So brutal was their regime that its name is never uttered aloud: Pandaren call it either the "Old Kingdom" or "First Dynasty."
The Thunder King was its founder and first emperor. He amassed enormous power on what is now the Isle of Thunder.
His time has passed, <name>. We should claim some of his power for ourselves. Gather mogu relics for me from the Throne of Thunder, and amass some trillium - I have a plan!
== Rewards ==
You will receive: 
==Progress==
What have you uncovered from the Throne of Thunder? Is the Thunder King's ferocious reputation warranted?
==Completion==
<Wrathion inspects the treasures you brought him.>
Well done. The trillium will need additional refinement, of course, but these samples are pure.
I will need to study these artifacts for a time but I believe I can use the knowledge contained here to craft something of great value to us both.
== Gains ==
* 294000 XP
* +250 reputation with The Black Prince
== Notes ==
This begins Wrathion's legendary quest starting in Patch 5.2. Players must have completed Call of the Packmaster or The Soul of the Horde before Wrathion will offer this quest. The two breadcrumb quests, The Thunder King (quest) and Meet Me Upstairs are both optional.
Secrets of the Empire sometimes drop from all bosses in the Throne of Thunder and bosses in the first two wings of Siege of Orgrimmar in all difficulty modes. Additionally, Wrathion demands 40 x Trillium Bar, which are crafted by alchemists (Transmute: Trillium Bar) and miners (Smelt Trillium). Much like with The Strength of One's Foes back in Patch 5.0, this quest will take some time to complete.
On accept of both this quest and I Need a Champion, Wrathion and Anduin Wrynn have a short conversation:
