Well if you put a little thought into it before you posted, you get the gear to clear the turns, you clear the turns to see the story as well as get the lewt.

But you need gear to clear the turns the first time, which you get from progression, clear first turn, run that whilst working on 2nd turn, clear 2nd turn, clear first 2 whilst working on third, and while you clear the previous turns each week you gear up more to help on the turn you are progressing on.
