One of the rare tier items in Nerubian Archaeology.
Requires 140 Nerubian Archaeology Fragments.
Keystone: Nerubian Obelisk

Puzzle Box of Yogg-Saron whispers you one upon use:
At the bottom of the ocean even light must die
The silent, sleeping, staring houses in the backwoods always dream. It would be merciful to tear them down.
There is no sharp distinction between the real and the unreal.
Even death may die.
There is a little lamb lost in dark woods.
All places, all things have souls. All souls can be devoured.
What can change the nature of a man?
The stars sweep chill currents that make men shiver in the dark.
You will all be alone in the end.
Do you dream while you sleep or is it an escape from the horrors of reality?
Look around. They will all betray you. Flee screaming into the black forest.
In the land of Ny'alotha there is only sleep.
In the sleeping city of Ny'alotha walk only mad things.
Ny'alotha is a city of old, terrible, unnumbered crimes.
Y'knath k'th'rygg k'yi mrr'ungha gr'mula.
The void sucks at your soul. It is content to feast slowly.
The drowned god's heart is black ice.
It is standing right behind you. Do not move. Do not breathe.
Have you had the dream again? A black goat with seven eyes that watches from the outside.
In the sunken city, he lays dreaming.
Open me! Open me! Open me! Then only will you know peace.
You resist. You cling to your life as if it actually matters. You will learn.
The tortured spirits of your ancestors cling to you, screaming in silence. Apparently they are quite numerous.
The fish know all the secrets. They know the cold. They know the dark.
The giant rook watches from the dead trees. Nothing breathes beneath his shadow.
Beneath the shadow of the darkened spire, there is no light, no mercy, only void, and the chaos within.

Common tier Nerubian items:
Infested Ruby Ring
Scepter of Nerzar'Azret
Vizier's Scrawled Streamer
Spidery Sundial
Six Clawed Cornice
Gruesome Heart Box
Ewer of Jormungar Blood

Rare tier Nerubian items:
Blessing of the Old God
Puzzle Box of Yogg-Saron

It is not cmbat pet. It´s WH error. YOU, sir, YOU are one of those who are looking too deep and miss something right in front of you. If you absolved 1st class, you should know it reads:

Make a vain attempt to open the puzzle box.

Oh, wait! "Make a vain attemp to open puzzle box"? Not "summons guardian of yogg saron"? Not "Summons Infernal to fight by your side"? It means only one thing - It Makes a vain attemp to open the puzzle box!

WH has this under Combat pets because it summons NPC that whishpers to you. ANd Infernal (along with imp) is Blizz´s favourite model for invisible/credit NPCs, for example, DRW has it in its 3D model, too

Does anyone of thoose who downrated me play Beta and knows it summons a guardian? I doubt

Comentado por myt362450

I got this and i try to open it every chance i get as i travel around diggin.

All it does is wisper wierd things to me like " There's a Lamb lost in the Dark Wood" and "He sleeps in the Lost Tomb and waits" or "do you still dream of the seven eyed beast". nothing makes sense and i haven't managed to open it yet if that is possible at all.

If it finally opens it should contain this same item inside (which like other containers would consume the container once you took the item inside). Imagine the rage.

Does this item play any audio clips? I know there were audio clips for Yogg's whispers in Wrath, but I'm guessing there won't be fore this, as it's a novelty item with a lot of quotes. Still it would be cool to hear more of Yogg's voice.

Anyone else find it funny that you assemble fragments into an unopenable box? that means YOU were the one who put it together, couldn't you disassemble it to get inside if it was in pieces in the first place?

And yes I understand the whole 'this is a game, dont complain' stuff, I just thought it was interesting

Comentado por gold07

Just finished making this all of two seconds ago, and I only have one thing to say about this item, this item is awesome..

Gotta love the kinda disturbing (Imo) phrases that get whispered to you, just wish it was easier getting Nerubian fragments, but oh well, it's worth it in the end. :)

Oh yeah, after I got it the next artifact that popped up was, believe it or not the Blessing of the Old Gods, so if anyone was wondering, it is possible for another rare to appear under the same Race after you've just made one, thought I'd just mention that. :) (Sorry about not knowing how to link either :P)

Comentado por Nifel

After spending three days in Northrend to get this I find it is totally worth it, having been in love with Lovecraftian lore for the last 17 years. It whispers me sweet nothings and looks fantastic in my bag.

Now, I really want to open this. I wish it could be done. I want it to play the music of Erich Zann, suck me into another dimension to be mind swapped with a Yithian and give me a silver key so I can finally enter unknown Kadath. I want to fly on the wings of the star spawn, to have my brain put on a cylinder and carried on the wings of the fungi from Pluto, teleported to the Leng plateau and carried by a dimensional shambler back to Earth, put on an altar in R'lyeh to be eaten by squid-face himself. Until there was nothing left of me and my character permanently deleted.

Sad, yes, but totally worth it.

After grinding on this for nearly 5 hours, I finally have my first Nerubian rare. In the time it took to gather the 104 fragments and 3 Obelisks, I gathered almost exactly 300 Vrykrul fragments + 6 of their Runesticks.

Once completed I macro'd the box to my Survey spell. If I'm going to go insane grinding these rares I may as well have some company.

I'd just like to address, If you are not receiving a text whisper, Right click on your chat log, Go to settings and make sure you have Boss Whispers and Emote Whispers boxes Checked.

This box is a perfect metaphor for people dead set on getting the epic items out of archaeology. So easy to try, never achievable, slowly driving you crazy.

Comentado por Rana

I'm not sure if this has been said already (I didn't read the downrated comments). Yesterday I finally completed the box, having managed to avoid slashing my wrists at the atrocious spawn rate of Nerubian digsites. If I never see another Vrykul artifact it'll be million years too soon.

At any rate, I clicked it a few times, then put it in my bank along with the other rares. Today, when digging up a troll digsite in Tanaris, I suddenly hear "Give in to your fear" coming from my speakers. And I didn't even have the box with me! Looks like the reach of the Old Gods is long indeed.

I was searching for this item for 1 hour, watching comments in diffrent sites, thinking what it might be... I came to a conclusion... nothing... first af all the discripsion "Use: Make a vain attempt to open the puzzle box." means you CANT open it by clicking it... either by a key that you "MIGHT" (i say might, cause i do not know) find or whatever. Or it is created just for you to click it and hearing the whispers...

Comentado por Kamikaze28

I'll go out on a limb here and say, that the box is giving us clues about a coming raid encounter. Yeah, I said it - but think about it for a moment. While questing in Vashj'ir you encountered multiple clues that the Twilight's Hammer are working together with an ancient power (with tentacles), Asa da Morte himself was corrupted by an Old God, so it falls in the realm of possibility, that we will face yet another Old God after C'Thun and Yogg-Saron. How Yoggies Puzzle Box can know about the stuff I am about to deduce is above me, but hey - we're talking Old Gods

At the bottom of the ocean even light must die.
Old God X may be below Vashj'ir, at the bottom of the ocean.

There is no sharp distinction between the real and the unreal.
Yogg-Saron showed, that Old Gods do like to tamper with our minds - Old God X will probably do something similar.

You will all be alone in the end.
Maybe, there will be a Phase in the encounter of Old God X where everyone is alone, fighting something, avoiding something - who knows.

Do you dream while you sleep or is it an escape from the horrors of reality?
Maybe Old God X has some connection to sleep - Emerald Nightmare, anyone?

Look around. They will all betray you.
Remember Arauto Volazj? Yeah, we will probably fight against each other in some manner while combating Old God X.

In the land of Ny'alotha there is only sleep.
Another connection to sleep.

In the sleeping city of Ny'alotha walk only mad things.
Yogg-Saron always favored madness, maybe Old God X will too?

The void sucks at your soul. It is content to feast slowly.
Maybe instead of going insane like with Yogg-Saron, our souls will be slowly devoured.

The drowned god's heart is black ice.
C'Thun had his stomach tentacles, Yogg-Saron had his brain, this time, we'll fight against an Old Gods heart.

It is standing right behind you. Do not move. Do not breathe.
Sangrelorde Mandokir had an ability where doing anything would kill you - I smell a comeback.

In the sunken city, he lays dreaming.
Yet another connection to sleep and dreaming.

You resist. You cling to your life as if it actually matters. You will learn.
Maybe we will die as part of the encounter?

According to these lines of the puzzle box:

In the land of Ny'alotha there is only sleep.
In the sleeping city of Ny'alotha walk only mad things.
Ny'alotha is a city of old, terrible, unnumbered crimes. It sems like you are gonna battle someone in Ny'alotha a sunken city like vashj 'ir. According to thse lines:
The drowned god's heart is black ice.
In the sunken city, he lays dreaming. We are gonna battle an old god which will probely be N'Zath that was the old god who curropted Neltharion (Deathwing) and made the Emerald Nightmare.
According to the lines that mention Dream, Sleep, Nightmare means that we are gonna battle N'Zath in the Emeral Dreamd

I know there is many other whispers but these are the most important.
So it seems you are gonna battle N'Zath in the sunken/sleeping city of Ny'alotha inside the Emerald Dream.

Beneath the shadow of the darkened spire, there is no light, no mercy, only void, and the chaos within.

This could very well mean Karazhan, seeing as though there were 2 versions of Kara, both the tower you see, and the mirror image that lies below, as well as the fact that it is stated that is lies on a nexus of most, if not all the ley lines in Azeroth.

While I have yet to reach a high enough archaeology level, I have been leveling it primarily for this epic Lovecraft reference. Remember, Cthulhu still waits dreaming, and Yog-Sothoth still holds the key to this mystery. Next comes Zoth-Ommog through N'Zoth. How have our characters stayed sane for so long when on a planet so corrupted?

Algalon had the right idea, planetary origination...but the Old Gods have been playing our characters semi-like cards.

TL;DR - The maddening whispers are epic, even if they hinder our sanity.

Some of these quotes are damn interesting when you consider some lore figures and other NPCs' quotes...

For example -

The giant rook watches from the dead trees. Nothing breathes beneath his shadow.

O HAI MEDIVH (Yes, I know, it probably isn't supposed to be referencing him, but it'd be interesting if it did. The quite actually reminded me of the Karazhan loading screen... All those dead trees. Medivh, your garden's gone all crunchy again.)

And this:
Beneath the shadow of the darkened spire, there is no light, no mercy, only void, and the chaos within.

No light, no mercy...where have we heard that before? Wait... Aw crap. Dammit, Yogg, he didn't NEED to be any crazier. Also, darkened spire indeed.

I know a lot of people see this as useless, but this was one of the only items I wanted from archeology. I'm a lover of all things creepy or weird and this puzzle box has to be one of the cooler items in game, especially if you get all of the references. I think it would be kind of neat if it gave you some kind of debuff that gradually drove your character insane and after using it X amount of times you lose control of your character for 5 seconds or something.

Whilst I suspect that you currently can't open it, the box merely says 'Extremely difficult to open' --> anything that is defined through difficulty is (or at least in this case should be) possible to open, otherwise it'd be impossible to open and consequently not labelled with a difficulty.

Comentado por 44910

while it's a fun and interesting item, I'm going to be honest and say it's a bit of a disappointment. I mean, it's epic, quite rare and takes a lot of fragments. And all it does is whisper you - it's not even visible to other players.

For so much effort, and taking into account the epic quality of the item, i would have expected much more from this.

Might be fun if this thing gets 'upgraded' later on through archaeology... Or at least if they add in more creepy Old God relics to nerubian sites.

Perhaps it will only open for Yogg-Saron himself, use this item while fighting him in Ulduar, maybe something will happen...

Also "There is no sharp distinction between the real and the unreal." appears to relate to something Mindbender Gur'sha says, "Is this reality?" The whole idea of this item seems to be to depress or drive whoever tries to open it insane, as the Old Gods themselves do when you fight them. Perhaps created to be a final act of vengeance to linger on as Yogg-Saron's maddening presence.

I have wondered if this thing can be opened at all -- I've been clicking on it regularly since getting it and seeing the creepy quotes ... today, however, while in Southern Barrens, I clicked on it and without the sky-color change or any other warning, Deathwing hits the area with his usual fire and death. Meanwhile, no creepy statement from the box.

Certainly, this could have been pure coincidence; but it would fit (sorta) the Box's statements.

Anyone else run across this to confirm?

Comentado por 929288

can someone with he box check this out to see if its legit?

Alright, I solved the clues of the Puzzle Box of Yogg-Saron. This is an epic item that is "Extremely difficult to open" because it is an extremely difficult location that you have to get to in order to open it. Notice how the box has about 10 sec. delay before it whispers a clue? That delay is there because the item is actually having to find its location and see if it is correct. If it didn't open it would just spit out a random 'clue' as soon as you clicked it. With that said, here is my breakdown of the important clues:
1. At the bottom of the ocean even light must die.
-The location is at the bottom of the ocean. The deeper you go, the darker it gets. So all the way down.
2. Even death may die.
-This would imply that even when you are dead you can die, which is the case with fatigue effect.
3. You will all be alone in the end.
-The end refers to death and your spirit. You will not be able to reunite the two after death, thus a spirit resurrection would be required.
4. All places, all things have souls. All souls can be devoured.
-The great sea is known for devouring souls. All places touch the great sea and all souls that going into it dies.
5. You resist. You attempt to cling to your life as if it actually matters. You'll learn.
-This clue means you won't be able to survive so don't even try. Just get to the location and open the box and let death take you.
6. In the sunken city, he lays dreaming.
-In the sunken temple there is a dreamer's chamber with a dragon sleeping in it. In the sunken city, Vashja'ir, there is a place where dragon's lay dreaming, as dead bone skeletons.
7. The void sucks at your soul. It is content to feast slowly.
-The void is what kills you in the outlands when you jump off the ledge, the ocean bottom also has a void that kills you instantly. Be content with the slow feasting of fatigue and get around the void.
8. What can change the nature of a man?
-This means by default you won't be able to get there without some kind of enhancement. Suggests underwater breathing potions, faster swimming, survival spells, etc.
9. The giant rook watches from the dead trees. Nothing breaths beneath its shadows.
-Around this location are shadows of what appears to be dead trees. It's actual the abandon reef's shadows that appear as dead trees all over, which is where you want to start.

for all those wandering the quotes are ALL from H P Lovecraft Books, altough some can be a little changed, but some, like Even Death May Die, is exactly how it appears on books. This one in special is from The Doom that Came to Sarnath i think: '' There's no death which can eternally lie, And with strange Aeons even death may die"

Comentado por marman1239

Awesome item, and great references to several of Lovecraft's books. For example, "Even death may die" is a part of a quote from the Nameless City. The bottom of the ocean is a reference to Cthulhu who sleeps in his underwater city of R'lyeh. I don't think these are at all clues to any new raid or encounter, but rather have been included simply as an homage to HP Lovecraft himself.

Kinda of an old point, most of the clues point to Vashj'ir as the place. They have since scrapped Abysal Maw as a Dungeon/Raid though. It's possible they may have made the puzzle box to be opened after defeating N'Zoth, but alas we'll never know. They seemed to have reused at least one of the clues in WoW lore though. "Have you had the dream again? A black goat with seven eyes that watches from the outside." Y'Shaarj is the next old God to be revealed in the current Mists of Pandaria expansion after becoming exalted with the klaxxi. The 7 eyes being the 7 shas that are the remaining shadows of Y'Shaarj.

Death may refer to the evil boss (i think it was a god).

3 : You will all be alone in the end.

OMG BLACK, SEVEN EYED GOAT GOD!

10 : In the sunken city, he lays dreaming.
The god is hidden in Ny'alotha

11 : The tortured spirits of your ancestors cling to you, screaming in silence. Apparently they are quite numerous.
Maybe he has attacked before?

12 : The fish know all the secrets. They know the cold. They know the dark.
The fish live in the water and have seen Ny'alotha

13 : Beneath the shadow of the darkened spire, there is no light, no mercy, only void, and the chaos within.
Blizzard worded that one for me

And, more info on the rumor, the boss Ra-den in Throne of Thunder says this upon getting defeated:

Wait! I am... I am not your enemy. You are powerful, more powerful than he was, even... perhaps you are right. Perhaps there is still hope.
But there is a yawning chasm of darkness beneath you mortals, vast, endless, and all consuming. I do not believe that you can correct this doomed course.
But you have earned the right to try. Farewell.

This is a shout-out to the Lemarchand's Box/Lament Configuration box puzzles that appear in Clive Barker's stories. Generally when somebody comes upon one they tire effortlessly to solve the puzzle, but once they do they realize what a horrible mistake they made in doing so, as depending on your circumstances horrible things happen to you or those around you...at best the people around you end up dead or you end up going insane (in non-Hellraiser related stories) and at worst you end up in Hell, being tortured in the worst ways possible for eternity by the Cenobites, who usually start their meeting by going on about "What wondrous things they have in store for you."

So in other words, it's probably a good thing that you can't solve the puzzle. :P

I believe we are getting closer to unlocking the puzzle.

Here is one of the quotes from Xal'atoh, Desecrated Image of Gorehowl:

When you walk through the dark forest, you will see.

And here are a couple of quotes from this box:

There is a little lamb lost in dark woods.

Look around. They will all betray you. Flee screaming into the black forest.

This could just be a coincidence, but we all know that would be too easy. Xal'atoh is Gorehowl corrupted by Y'Shaarj. I assume the voice we hear is Y'Shaarj himself. Of course, this still fits with the Old Gods theory because he is an Old God. These both talk about some sort of dark forest. I have no idea what this could mean. People say this has to do with the ocean, but it just doesn't seem to fit. There aren't any forests underwater. Well, unless it's a forest of coral, but that's not really a forest. Maybe the descriptions given by this box are not literal, but metaphorical.

Comentado por Zoologic

I've figured out several of these hints, and I thought I would take a moment to share some of what I have discovered.

"At the bottom of the ocean even light must die"
"In the sunken city, he lays dreaming."
"The fish know all the secrets. They know the cold. They know the dark."
"The giant rook watches from the dead trees. Nothing breathes beneath his shadow."
Those "hints" are all connected without a doubt

Basically, what these hints are telling us is that at the bottom of the ocean, where light dies and leaves only darkness, there is a sunken city. Most people assume this to be Nazjatar, the naga capital. This, however is incorrect. Moving on, Yogg-Saron describes this "sunken city" to us. He says that in the in this sunken city, someone or something lays dreaming. Next we have this "Hint": "The giant rook watches from the dead trees. Nothing breathes beneath his shadow.". In this "hint" there is a key subject, and it is not the giant rook, but rather, the Dead Trees. For those of you who know your stuff when it comes to lore, this will instantly tell you what city Yogg is whispering to us about.

Before the great shattering that destroyed the Well of Eternity, there was a race called the Kaldorei, which are the race we known as Night elves now, and the ruler of the Kaldorei was none other than Queen Azshara. The capitol city of the Kaldorei was a city called Suramar. When the Shattering happened, Suramar was almost completely destroyed, and sank to the bottom of the Great Sea, very close to where the Maelstrom is. In the center of the city were Azshara's gardens once were, stood 2 Aspen Trees, all that remains of these trees now are 2 petrified stumps. This implies that the aspen trees are dead, and thus are directly tied to the hint involving the Dead Trees.

So, the the Sunken city that yogg is talking about is really Suramar.

As I was checking my facts and making sure I had everything straight, I found something else that cracks open the case even wider. Now we consider these 4 "Hints"

"In the land of Ny'alotha there is only sleep."
"In the sleeping city of Ny'alotha walk only mad things."
"Ny'alotha is a city of old, terrible, unnumbered crimes."
"Beneath the shadow of the darkened spire, there is no light, no mercy, only void, and the chaos within."

Queen Azshara, the ruler of the Kaldorei, did some pretty terrible, heinous things. She is solely responsible for the Shattering, and the first invasion of the Burning Legion. Those crimes are about as terrible as it gets. Additionally, Queen Azsharas palace (a place she named the Eternal Palace) had towers that were made of trees, strengthened by rock, and had jutting spires and high open windows. The Eternal Palace was destroyed by The Shattering, however, it's significance remains. When the Eternal Palace still stood, it should be implied that light shined on the palace, it's towers and it's spires. When the City and palace sank to the bottom of the ocean, light died and gave way to darkness. "Beneath the shadow of the darkened spire, there is no light, no mercy, only void, and the chaos within." there is something of GREAT significance beneath the runes of the Eternal Palace in Suramar. We know that the old gods thrive on chaos, so I believe that Beneath the darkened spires of the Eternal Palace lies the entrance or a portal connecting to the land of the old gods, the land of Ny'alotha, which I believe exists in another location in the Warcraft universe entirely. The void. In the void, there is NO light, and NO light attributed characteristics such as mercy and sanity, only chaos, evil, darkness, and insanity. Pure, unrestrained chaos. Light creates, void destroys. The void is where the Old Gods came from, as they are beings of pure evil and chaos, beyond even the scope of Sargeras.

Also, when you destroy an old gods physical body, it's spirit remains, forced back to the realm of Ny'alotha. It's very important to remember that old gods are eternals, and it is impossible to kill an eternal because they are immortal. They will always come back.

One final thing that I found very interesting is that Xal'Atoh, Desecrated Image of Gorehowl whispers to it's wielder periodically, and 2 of those whispers are particularly interesting.

"I can taste the essence of your soul....it is....sweeeet"
"Cut them more slowly... that I may feed"
Considering that this axe was essentially forged with the power of Y'sharrj, this would mean that Y'sharrj eats souls.

When you die, you too have a spirit.

"Even death may die."
"The void sucks at your soul. It is content to feast slowly."
"All places, all things have souls. All souls can be devoured."
"You will all be alone in the end." Indeed. When the physical body and spirit of a mortal are destroyed, the mortal will most likely cease to exist at all.
The tortured spirits of your ancestors cling to you, screaming in silence. Apparently they are quite numerous. Again, very true. Screaming in silence. Insane. If my spirit were slowly being devoured I would be driven to insanity too, and probably cling to any possible chance of getting away. Being slowly devoured is probably the most torturous thing that could happen to the spirit of anything.

This is all of course speculation. Well researched, and thought out, but still speculation.

Alright, I know that Blizzard has said several times that this box is just a box that says creepy stuff. I really think at the very least there is a meaning to what it says. A key part of any good ARG is denying that it exists, and that is exactly what Blizz is doing. I don't think the box is going to open, but there is definitely a riddle of some kind. Think about all the creepy whispers the old gods have ever given us. Whatever the answer is, it's bigger than just this box. Check Xal'atoh and all the books, anything you think might be relevant.

Comentado por Jorvalt

WHAT IF this box wasn't MEANT to be opened? What if it's a metaphor? Here's my theory:

The box represents death and the afterlife. It represents the uncertainty affiliated with death; it is impossible to know the unknowable.

At the bottom of the ocean even light must die
The silent, sleeping, staring houses in the backwoods always dream. It would be merciful to tear them down.
There is no sharp distinction between the real and the unreal.
Even death may die.
There is a little lamb lost in dark woods.
All places, all things have souls. All souls can be devoured.
What can change the nature of a man?
The stars sweep chill currents that make men shiver in the dark.
You will all be alone in the end.
Do you dream while you sleep or is it an escape from the horrors of reality?
Look around. They will all betray you. Flee screaming into the black forest.
In the land of Ny'alotha there is only sleep.
In the sleeping city of Ny'alotha walk only mad things.
Ny'alotha is a city of old, terrible, unnumbered crimes.
Y'knath k'th'rygg k'yi mrr'ungha gr'mula.
The void sucks at your soul. It is content to feast slowly.
The drowned god's heart is black ice.
It is standing right behind you. Do not move. Do not breathe.
Have you had the dream again? A black goat with seven eyes that watches from the outside.
In the sunken city, he lays dreaming.
Open me! Open me! Open me! Then only will you know peace.
You resist. You cling to your life as if it actually matters. You will learn.
The tortured spirits of your ancestors cling to you, screaming in silence. Apparently they are quite numerous.
The fish know all the secrets. They know the cold. They know the dark.
The giant rook watches from the dead trees. Nothing breathes beneath his shadow.
Beneath the shadow of the darkened spire, there is no light, no mercy, only void, and the chaos within.
This is describing some nightmarish city (hint hint: R'lyeh) in which, I'm assuming, Yogg-Saron tortures you for eternity. Basically, Yogg-Saron is just screwing with you and trying to get in your head. He wants to drive you to madness and force you to serve him.

In regards to one of the quotes, I realized the other morning that "At the bottom of the ocean, even light must die" HAS to be referring to Azshara. One of her many titles was/is "Light of Lights" and prior to the Great Sundering, her character was thematically based around lights. We found out recently that Azshara gave in to the whispers of an Old God as her city sunk to the bottom of the ocean and was forever transformed along with her people (who became the Naga)

Even Azshara must succumb to the power of the Old Gods.

Allright, so I've been doing some more thinking and I'll just list some possible meanings for the clues (not going to try and create a theory that fits with all of them, that would drive anyone insane):

At the bottom of the ocean even light must die.
This could mean the location is somewhere deep in the ocean. Or it could just be completely irrelevant.
The silent, sleeping, staring houses in the backwoods always dream. It would be merciful to tear them down.
This is nonsense.
There is no sharp distinction between the real and the unreal.
Also nonsense.
Even death may die.
A popular theory is that this has something to do with fatigue, since you can die of fatigue even as a ghost. However, if that was the case, wouldn't the phrase be "Even the dead may die."? My guess is that it has something to do with Yogg-Saron himself. He refers to himself as "the god of death", so that's definitely a possibility.
There is a little lamb lost in dark woods.
I've heard that this possibly referring to Garrosh, since Y'Shaarj is referred to (by this box) as a goat (see below). Makes sense, since this is basically calling him a "child of Y'Shaarj."
All places, all things have souls. All souls can be devoured.
This is probably irrelevant.
What can change the nature of a man?
This is completely ambiguous, so I would just disregard it unless we find some new information that correlates with this.
The stars sweep chill currents that make men shiver in the dark.
More nonsense.
You will all be alone in the end.
Referring to the fact that everyone is alone in death. Probably irrelevant.
Do you dream while you sleep or is it an escape from the horrors of reality?
Yet more nonsense.
Look around. They will all betray you. Flee screaming into the black forest.
This box mentions this "black forest" twice. Xal'atoh, Desecrated Image of Gorehowl also mentions this. It is called different names, but they're obviously referring to the same thing. It's debatable whether this is actually a physical location or a state of mind.
In the land of Ny'alotha there is only sleep.
In the sleeping city of Ny'alotha walk only mad things.
Ny'alotha is a city of old, terrible, unnumbered crimes.
I'm just going to lump all of these together. Nothing is known about this city called "Ny'alotha." Therefore, there's not enough information yet to interpret this.
Y'knath k'th'rygg k'yi mrr'ungha gr'mula.
Uh, could you repeat that?
The void sucks at your soul. It is content to feast slowly.
No idea what this could mean.
The drowned god's heart is black ice.
This is probably referring to the Heart of Y'Shaarj.
It is standing right behind you. Do not move. Do not breathe.
2spooky4me
Have you had the dream again? A black goat with seven eyes that watches from the outside.
This is referring to Y'Shaarj. Kil'ruk, in his retelling of the story of Y'Shaarj and the origin of the Mantid, mentions that Y'Shaarj has 7 heads. This obviously isn't a coincidence. Also, in the Heart of Fear, there is a mural that depicts a figure who appears to have tentacles and what looks like curled horns (like that of a goat). This is most likely Y'Shaarj.
In the sunken city, he lays dreaming.

So I guess this means we should ask fish where the location is. Too bad fish can't talk.
The giant rook watches from the dead trees. Nothing breathes beneath his shadow.
I've thought about this, and this could possibly be referring to Rook Stonetoe. Makes sense, seeing as he's giant and his name is Rook.
Beneath the shadow of the darkened spire, there is no light, no mercy, only void, and the chaos within.
No idea what this means either. This probably has to do with Ny'alotha, which, again, we know nothing about.

@ jorvalt - lemmi clear some of this as i can from what i know. ill re-post what you had here with my answers. my answers are in bold:

At the bottom of the ocean even light must die.
This could mean the location is somewhere deep in the ocean. Or it could just be completely irrelevant.
this seams to me referring to the dark depths of the ocean that we in game cant access besides abyssal depths that darkness rules and no light is present

The silent, sleeping, staring houses in the backwoods always dream. It would be merciful to tear them down.
This is nonsense.
his is a memory comment that the houses remember what happened in them and long to have occupants but they are to old and cant be lived in.

There is no sharp distinction between the real and the unreal.
Also nonsense.
this refers to i believe that the line between what may happen in the future can be shocking and real at the same time as it becomes the present

Even death may die.
A popular theory is that this has something to do with fatigue, since you can die of fatigue even as a ghost. However, if that was the case, wouldn't the phrase be "Even the dead may die."? My guess is that it has something to do with Yogg-Saron himself. He refers to himself as "the god of death", so that's definitely a possibility.
you said it

There is a little lamb lost in dark woods.
I've heard that this possibly referring to Garrosh, since Y'Shaarj is referred to (by this box) as a goat (see below). Makes sense, since this is basically calling him a "child of Y'Shaarj."
said it

All places, all things have souls. All souls can be devoured.
This is probably irrelevant.
this refers to the fact that everything lives and can be destroyed

What can change the nature of a man?
This is completely ambiguous, so I would just disregard it unless we find some new information that correlates with this.
i believe this is a future comment about thrall and king wyrn changing their path when a significant event happens

The stars sweep chill currents that make men shiver in the dark.
More nonsense.
not sure

You will all be alone in the end.
Referring to the fact that everyone is alone in death. Probably irrelevant.
said it

Do you dream while you sleep or is it an escape from the horrors of reality?
Yet more nonsense.
this means i believe that our dreams sometimes reflect what happens in the real world and you try and make sense of it in the dream realm

Look around. They will all betray you. Flee screaming into the black forest.
This box mentions this "black forest" twice. Xal'atoh, Desecrated Image of Gorehowl also mentions this. It is called different names, but they're obviously referring to the same thing. It's debatable whether this is actually a physical location or a state of mind.
black forest from what i have figured out is reference to a spot within the black forest also called the whispering woods, this is in Thristfal glades

In the land of Ny'alotha there is only sleep.
In the sleeping city of Ny'alotha walk only mad things.
Ny'alotha is a city of old, terrible, unnumbered crimes.
I'm just going to lump all of these together. Nothing is known about this city called "Ny'alotha." Therefore, there's not enough information yet to interpret this.
no clue at present

Y'knath k'th'rygg k'yi mrr'ungha gr'mula.
Uh, could you repeat that?
um anyone got a translator? mine is broken.

The void sucks at your soul. It is content to feast slowly.
No idea what this could mean.
i belive referse to the fact we all came from the void and in death will return to it.

The drowned god's heart is black ice.
This is probably referring to the Heart of Y'Shaarj.
said it

It is standing right behind you. Do not move. Do not breathe.

unknown at present

Have you had the dream again? A black goat with seven eyes that watches from the outside.
This is referring to Y'Shaarj. Kil'ruk, in his retelling of the story of Y'Shaarj and the origin of the Mantid, mentions that Y'Shaarj has 7 heads. This obviously isn't a coincidence. Also, in the Heart of Fear, there is a mural that depicts a figure who appears to have tentacles and what looks like curled horns (like that of a goat). This is most likely Y'Shaarj.

You resist. You cling to your life as if it actually matters. You will learn.
Rude.
i believe refers to our will to keep going forward even against all odds to survive.

The tortured spirits of your ancestors cling to you, screaming in silence. Apparently they are quite numerous.
Now that's just weird.
i believe references the past battles of our ancestors who did not die honorably in battle or peacefully of old age

The fish know all the secrets. They know the cold. They know the dark.

So I see all these posts about what the box says but is it actually possible to open it...

Comentado por Jorvalt

After watching someone play a game inspired by Lovecraftian fiction, at one point I noticed a quote wherein part of it exactly matches one of the things said by this box. This quote is from "The Nameless City":

That is not dead which can eternal lie,
And with strange aeons even death may die.

I'm not sure if there are more H.P. Lovecraft references in this, personally I haven't read any of his works. My point is that this is probably just unopenable and Blizzard is trolling all of us.
Edit: After doing some more digging (plugging each individual quote into google and seeing if any results besides this puzzle box turned up) I found some more references to H.P. Lovecraft, and oddly enough, one from Planescape: Torment:

Ravel Puzzlewell (from Planescape: Torment):

What can change the nature of a man?

"The Tomb":

Men of broader intellect know that there is no sharp distinction betwixt the real and the unreal...

Note that the puzzle box actually says "between" instead of "betwixt", but I think that's just because "betwixt" is old English and for some reason Blizzard just didn't feel like doing that.

"Nyarlathotep" (strikingly similar to Ny'alotha, don't you think?):

A sense of monstrous guilt was upon the land, and out of the abysses between the stars swept chill currents that made men shiver in dark and lonely places.

It's kind of weird how the box leaves out the "between" at the beginning. Makes it sound like the stars are somehow creating a cool breeze, y'know? The quote from the box is also present tense for some reason.

Thanks for getting in touch with us about this. :) I'll now look over it for you!

I've taken a look into this and I can see people have found the location to where the whispering from the box seems to suggest to go and found what look like an orb under the sea, I can't speak for the developers when they added that but I'm guessing they did it as a bit of fun :) So that if you guys did go to the effort of the clues it would show you that but sadly the box can't be opened so thats just fun too.

Theres nothing in the box its just meant to be a bit of fun with some spooky quotes, though I agree it would be awesome if it did open :D Glad you had fun trying to unveil its secrets though.

Hope this helps clear things up and save you some time, have a great day!

Im surprised no one has mentioned that one item that might be needed, if theres any possibility of opening the box, by following clues.

"The drowned god's heart is black ice." Could this perhaps refer to the polearm dropped by Malygos on 25man by the same name (Black Ice)?

considdering the other clues, and the location almost everyone seem to be ending up at, drowned god could be one of the creatures found down there (their skeleton atleast).

Am I the only one that thinks the 'Orb' at the location looks incredibly similar to the Pearls that the Naga were stealing from the Demi-God Nespirah?

Maybe the pearls presence at this location was intended to be another clue? I think it makes sense for Nespirah to be involved somehow since 'The fish know all the secrets...'

Also, if you got up to Nespirah's face, its eye's are identical to the ones on the old God C'Thun. Could just be a coincidence but hey it's another link.

A number of these quotes come almost directly from the works of Lovecraft:

The silent, sleeping, staring houses in the backwoods always dream. It would be merciful to tear them down.

"Only the silent, sleepy, staring houses in the backwoods can tell all that has lain hidden since the early days; and they are not communicative, being loath to shake off the drowsiness which helps them forget. Sometimes one feels it would be merciful to tear down these houses, for they must often dream." (The Picture in the House)

Even death may die.

"That is not dead which can eternal lie,
And with strange aeons even death may die." (The Call of Cthulhu, The Nameless City)

The stars sweep chill currents that make men shiver in the dark.

"...and out of the abysses between the stars swept chill currents that made men shiver in dark and lonely places." (Nyarlathotep)

Ny'alotha is a city of old, terrible, unnumbered crimes.

"I remember when Nyarlathotep came to my city -- the great, the old, the terrible city of unnumbered crimes." (Nyarlathotep)

There is no sharp distinction between the real and the unreal.

"Men of broader intellect know that there is no sharp distinction between the real and the unreal; that all things appear as they do only by virtue of the delicate individual physical and mental media through which we are made conscious of them; but the prosaic materialism of the majority condemns as madness the flashes of super-sight which penetrate the common veil of obvious empiricism." (The Tomb)

The best way to farm this, and any other archaeology rare you are farming for that matter, is to use Mapa do Andarilho das Lendas and Localizador Sônico de Artefatos Mantídeo. These items combined make it so all of your pandaria archaeology sites spawn in the Ermo do Medo. This allows you to mass farm Mantid artifacts, which by themselves do not have the coolest rares, but because all the spawn zones are so close and so small you will have very little travel time between spawn areas and you will be able to get lots of artifacts to create Artefato Restaurado. You can then spend your Artefato Restaurado at Brann Barbabronze and buy various crates of other artifact pieces.

This looks like its very inefficient because it equates to 1 mantid solve is 1 successful survey of the type you are wanting. The reason it becomes more efficient is because of how low the travel time is between the mantid locations and how small the mantid locations are. Normally the spawns that you are searching for have a random chance to appear and you may have to farm up other sites that you aren't interested in to get more of the ones you want to spawn. Not to mention having to fly back and forth between winterspring and Un'Goro.

I am HEARING actual whispers from the puzzle box, about five seconds after the "whisper" is received from the puzzle box. I turned my ambience, effects, & music to zero, and my dialogue up to 100. The whispers aren't the same each time, and they sound like Yogg-Saron. I used to be able to trigger these sound whispers if I died or moved to a different zone after pressing the puzzle box button. Now I'm getting them consistently, every single time. I don't remember this being possible, and I've done a lot of testing on this thing. Maybe I was getting them before, and I was just able to hear it better when I was dead, or when I was zoned, but I'm pretty sure that I tried to hear it during regular use (at the beginning of SL), and I wasn't able to.

I tried looking through to see if anyone else in here could literally HEAR the whispering, but I didn't find anything on it. Does anyone remember if this always happened?
