Hello all, since I found this quest frustrating, I've decided to come here to try to help some folks. If you happen to die during this quest, if you make it across the bridge a bit of yellow text should pop up saying your soul is a little lighter, which means you can fly.
If you were unfortunate like me, and didn't know this was a possibility and resurrected, its still fine, there is a transport up to the top around 62, 72 just underneath the floating island, be careful because the enemies will now be hostile towards you.
Annoying how you have to walk like 600 yards if you die though, they shoulda just given you flight right after you perish up there.
If you happen to drop quest as I did, you have to reach the top by standing on a blue swirly thing on the ground. But you have to be out of combat and it will port you to the top.

Quickly! We have no time to lose. Lysonia has weakened Eridia to the point that she may fall. Our Paragon will do what she can, but we must intervene. We will challenge Lysonia, and perhaps buy Eridia more time. This so-called Hand of Doubt will make no easy foe. Stand ready, {name}.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Enemy You Know
My heart is filled with dread. If it truly is Lysonia who leads them now... No. What is important is that we restore the great vespers. So long as their mighty voices are corrupted, all who hear them will suffer as this temple does. It is only a matter of time before all of Bastion succumbs.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Purity's Prerogative
Do you feel it, <name>? That cold hand that grips your throat? That chill settled in the pit of your stomach? That is the touch of the Maw, as certain as the Archon's will. I do not know how Lysonia came to possess this power, but we must act quickly.
