"In from the Cold" Scenario, any way to skip it?

That's the thing you see the whole thing as filler, where others sees the relevance to it as WoL. How it plays into the story. I'm sure you're mad at it, because you got spotted, and were made to fight as the weaker Imperial Soldier and not as your all powerful WoL (or the class you're best familiar with). A lot of us were frustrated at that part, I'm sure, but what it lead into, it makes sense. I say you need to finish the quest as you stated, before calling it "just filler." To me filler is following a girl in green dress to catch them, or the dart game. Those are more fillers.

Sure, I still need to finish it, I did the duty portion of it, or first if there are multiple. From the start to crawling out of the city. But unless Zenos does something major while in the char's body, the whole quest will amount to nothing. I would rather go back go do random chores as they were better written.

Zenos could at anytime massacre all the scions, if he really wanted to. We somehow crawl from one end of the map - in a frozen wasteland - and still make it to Zenos in time.

Ahh yes random chores is much easier to get through, but would have had much less impact in that particular sequence of events. I'm glad they didn't ruin that moment by a "step and fetch" quest. I suggest doing on Very Easy mode to cause you less frustration. No shame in it, I did it in that mode for the same reason. It still has the same impact on the story without being super flustered.

I think you miss the point of Zenos and his character. I will not go into details tho. Keep going and you will be reminded or learn why things are happening
