This is the beginning of a long chain of quests. In the end, you get to choose between one of opposing factions (Oracles vs. Frenzyheart), but during the quest chain, you will need to associate with both at different times.

The first set of quests is with the Frenzyhearts:

Here you end up saving the life of the Oracle that you were attempting to spy upon. Now you begin doing quests for the Oracles:

Now you get the first daily quest. This is an elite quest, and must be done now to continue. It can be done again another day if you want to ever change your faction:
A Hero's Burden

To finish the quest, you need to save either an Oracle NPC or Frenzyheart NPC. Depending on which one you save, you will get one of the following quests.
Hand of the Oracles
Frenzyheart Champion

At this point, you can begin doing daily quests (up to 3 a day) for the faction that you have chosen
