You spent a patch or two helping out the doman refugees in their journey to find a home and get settled, then the current expansion takes you to doma. A lot of important things actually happen or get set up in the 2.x line, it just isnt all obvious or immediate.
This! I dislike fetch quests and the back and forth tedium as much as the next person, but I think people forget, and/or don’t realize how much build up is in the ARR MSQ.
