Updated macro for The War Within and beyond to check whether you’ve completed the weekly Timewalking quest, for both Horde and Alliance and for all different Timewalking campaigns. If all the text appears red, you haven't completed this week's quest yet.

Alliance:
/run a={{"Classic",43117},{"BC",0},{"WotLK",5},{"Cata",619},{"MoP",5395},{"WoD",15330},{"Legion",24542},{"BfA",49054}}for i=1,#a do n,o=a[1],a[2]print("\124cFF"..(C_QuestLog.IsQuestFlaggedCompleted(40168+o)and"00FF00"or"c51a20")..n.."\124r")end
Horde:
/run a={{"Classic",43117},{"BC",0},{"WotLK",5},{"Cata",618},{"MoP",5395},{"WoD",15330},{"Legion",24542},{"BfA",49055}}for i=1,#a do n,o=a[1],a[2]print("\124cFF"..(C_QuestLog.IsQuestFlaggedCompleted(40168+o)and"00FF00"or"c51a20")..n.."\124r")end

Description

Cold to the touch when you first reach for it, this ember bursts into flame without warning and snuffs itself just as quickly. As the stone rests in your hand, visions of fire and of dragons dance through your mind, but you can hear conversation taking place in Orgrimmar and the familiar sight of circle portals bubbles to the top.
