Notes on this Artifact:

(This list of requirements for the Vial of the Sands comes from Wowhead commenters)
This alchemy vial teaches your character to be able to morph into a Sandstone Drake – a fast mount capable of carrying one passenger.

You’ll need 525 Alchemy and the Recipe is obtained through Archeology. It is contained in the Tol’Vir Common Artifact Canopic Jar.
You will need 450 Archeology to find Tol’Vir artifacts and they are in Uldum.

The Sand and Pyrium Laced Vial are purchased from a Vendor named Yasmin in Uldum.
She is located in North West Uldum.
