Instead of this one, the next quest was A Lamplighter's Duty. You go up to a skiff (tiny airship) and take a ride. Don't be an idiot like me and attempt to step onto it, you'll fall to your death. Wait until you get the green arrow to mount it.

What to do
Description
{name}, Faerin went to light the dawntower. She said it keeps the light of the Sacred Flame shining upon Hallowfall. Kyron is there as well. It's hard to imagine that any beacon could outshine their star Beledar, but I am eager to see this new expression of the Light. Meet me by the dawntower and we can see how the Sacred Flame of the Arathi helps to safeguard these long-lost cousins of mine.
