Raiding is becoming less and less optional

It could be as simple as "that man over there is giving you odd looks; maybe he wants to talk to you."

Its actually even more fitting than that. If I were the devs, I would have crystal tower require the player to be on 2.1 (the same as four lords and sorrows of werlyt requiring 4.1 and 5.1). As part of the 2.1 MSQ the scions relocate from the waking sands to the rising stones, theres no reason why that subplot can't link briefly with the CT quest in mor dhona
