Crystal Tower was more or less a tangental sidequest until ShB brought it into the main story so they could easily make it required and relevant in several ways.
Thanks, I really could not remember the story for it. Though that may stem from my own dislike of Weeping City and Dun Scaith due to the amount of bad players I encountered back in HW who could not do those places. It was bad enough to where I feel I probably had more failures of those two places in HW then I did of the newer ARs since then combined.
