I'm quite surprised nobody has commented on the completion quest text for this. I found it quite humorous and a deserved nod to player-created gear systems:
"I hope you're as tough as your gear suggests."

"I hope you're as tough as your gear suggests" should be one of the tips they show during loading screens.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Life from Death
<race>, I have a task for you. Take these ruby seeds and plant them at the corpses of any dragonkin that you come across. Twilight or Vermillion, whelping or dragon, it matters not. We need to see that their bodies are returned to the earth so that life can continue to flourish.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Encroaching Twilight
Fragile Twilight invaders litter the redoubt. They're pouring in from somewhere to the west. There can be no mercy offered to them within this hallowed place. Whatever violence grips your moral heart, release it upon them.
