Mia Rose is a WoW player on Tichondrius (I think). She is also a IRL porn actress who played in World of $%^&*craft. I think it is cool there is a reference to her here.
This quest is HORRIBLE as an arcane mage. Mia hits like truck, and is immune to snares... good luck

There are three candidates for Ascendancy that we need to eliminate: Dame Alys Finnsson, Master Klem, and Mia the Rose. I'd like for you to serve as my distraction. When the time is right, I'll step in and finish them off from behind. Whatever you do, {name}, do not underestimate them. Each got to where they are by being ruthless and very good at what they do.

Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Elementium Axe
The Twilight cowards have captured and killed too many red dragons, but one yet lives. Do you remember Lirastrasza? She's shackled nearby and we're going to free her. But first, we need something sharp enough to cut through her chains. There's an old ettin named Blindeye the Guardian.
After this quest
