Time Rifts are a new world event that has been introduced in World of Warcraft Dragonflight Patch 10.1.5. The quest When Time Needs Mending introduces you to this new type of random world encounter and gives out notable rewards.
Time Rifts can be identified on your map by horn icons. These events will run every hour but only last around 15 total minutes. These are two-stage events that contain an array of activities and tasks to complete. Once you complete these world events, you are rewarded with both a new currency, dubbed Paracausal Flakes, and also reputation with Soridormi.

In order to complete When Time Needs Mending in WoW Dragonflight, all you need to do is complete one Time Rift. Time Rifts are two-stage world events. Usually, the first stage takes around ten minutes and requires you to slay a certain number of enemies, named boss-like enemies, or collecting objects.
Next, you will need to venture through a portal to an alternate version of Azeroth. There are seven total variations, each with a unique setting and boss.
Once you defeat the boss of the timeline, you will collect the rewards associated with Time Rifts and also fulfill the requirement of your quest. Return to Soridormi and finish your quest to get your Contained Paracasuality.
