A major issue is that a large majority of the expansion is gated behind that particular mission. Can't explore fully, can't gather all of the aether currents, can't do dungeons without progressing past it etc. The only options are to FATE grind, do something else (but gathering / crafting wastes your exp bonus), complete the other quests (I've already done these) or give up until later and log out.
