Unfortunately this quest will not count any world quests completed already......prior to picking this up
Just one of the ways to slow down your campaign a bit. No need to rush the quests really, just wait for your emissary quests each day and knock those out.

Description
Requests are pouring in from across the Broken Isles for our aid, Highlord. I know that we are working to aid the priests at Netherlight Temple, but there are many others who need our help. We cannot turn our backs on those who need our aid.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Lumenstone
To prepare for the battle ahead, we will need armor and weapons. We have learned of lumenstone, a rare metal that can negate magic... even fel magic. It is found in small quantities all over the Broken Isles, and many of the native races use it in their own metalcrafting.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Light in the Darkness
Highlord, thank goodness you've arrived! The invasion of Netherlight Temple has begun. Our forces are already waiting on the other side of the portal. Join them, and we will close the trap around Lord Balnazzar.
