World Quest occurs at 67, 29. There is an additional step that is not currently noted of Assist Aspirant Thetes. He is hiding behind the wall at 66.3, 28.1. Once you speak with him, he runs to the central platform for a few seconds before running down the main stairs. About 5 yards after reaching the bottom, he mostly says thanks. You will then get credit for assisting him at that point.
Not sure if this was changed in recent patches but I did not have to talk to anyone. Once I gathered the 100 item drops from the spiders/monsters, I had to click my action button (which I can never see when it pops up. Bliz please, please, make it more obvious that I have to click a button!) to create a rift and go and kill one extra monster. Gather the orbs it drops, they buff you up.
The description for this quest is awful: once you find Thetes, you must follow him around until he thanks you and leaves. Then you must clear everything. If you clear everything and then talk to him, you'll have to follow him around again, making it incredibly inefficient.
TLDR: first follow Thetes around, once you're done, start killing thingies to your heart's content.
