TheWoWDBThis seems to be the 3rd Kirian chapter, after "Torghast". But there's a big flaw here. Seems that you need to complete "The Spires of Ascension" quest/dungeon, to be able to proceed to the Trial of Ascencion campaign. The sad part here is that being a pre-requirement isn't obvious. If you're avoiding dungeons (for whatever reason, new or old players), you will be stuck in your Kirian campaign progression. Which is nothing less than lame. Just look at how many people are posting about covenant change due to this misleading, awkward and confusing campaign sequence. Trully aweful...
I personnally didn't realise it until already renown 14. What a waste of time.

Hey! If you were getting stuck, sometimes it can be hidden behind a repeatable quest.
Edit - The repeatable quest is this: (First comment, I have no idea how WoWhead works.) A call to [insert place here].
I'm renown level 5, haven't switched covenants, and am not being offered this quest. reloaded UI, and relogged. did not complete the stupid maldraxus WQ that's hard as balls, but no other reason for this quest not to show up.

Description
The Forsworn threat is ever looming, and our forces are dwindling. Now, more than ever, we need more Ascended. Our generous Archon has blessed us with a portion of our anima stores to ascend our top aspirants to join our forces. Kleia is amongst the chosen, and thus must complete her final trial. As Pelagos is not yet prepared to ascend, I request you be Kleia's partner for this process. It is arduous and should not be embarked on alone. She must bear her first soul.

The Forsworn are going to great lengths to prevent us from ascension. They mobilize to stand in our way, to dismantle our chances to partake in our rituals. They have stolen the resources we need to start our trial.
