Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

• Becoming the AscendantStormheim · Level 10-45

  Our course is now clear. We must enter the vault and prevent Sylvanas from obtaining the power to create more Val'kyr. The entrance is barred, which is likely what has kept her out so far, but you may have already uncovered the key to this barrier. You must become the next ascendant.
