When I get to the part "Consult the Tome about Locus-Walker's summons to Tazavesh" I click the Consult the Tome button but all I get is "Target is not on the ground". Tried to teleport to Dornogal and I get "Can't do that while moving". Tried to logout and I get " You can't logout now". Why Blizzard why? Anyone have any idea? I don't want to exit recap after doing all this.

Update: Ok never mind. I alt F4 and logged back in and Consult the Tome worked finally.

I conquered Dimensius, watched the full post battle video for this raid, but receive zero guidance from the Tome on how to finish aiding Alleria. I tried consulting the Tome, but that didn't help, I tried quitting the Tome, exiting the game and reopening the Tome activity again, but ZERO guidance from the Tome. Any idea on how to complete aiding Alleria story line or is it bugged? At this point, I am just redoing the whole campaign, which is annoying, but it has helped level up another of my characters.

WARNING: I got through the Dimensius raid event and accidentally selected 'take me back to where I started' instead of talking to NPC to exit storyline raid and it put me in Orgrimmar with no possible way to return to the RECAP even by exiting and taking it back up.

Be careful not to ever select 'take me back...' from the tome because you will have no choice but to completely re-run 2 hours of progress.

    Just moments ago, these ethereals appeared out of nowhere. They attacked Noggenfogger and attempted to haul him off. I made short work of the first attackers, but they keep coming. Now they're searching every building and killing anyone who stands in their way.
