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

[Drkdays]

Zenos has never once felt like a nemesis to me, nor even a real antagonist. He's annoying, self-centered, egomaniacal and apparently very stupid.

He never really seems to know what he wants, much less how to get it.

He hands over his entire empire to a clearly bonkers ascian who then babies him (such as by setting up playdates like this quest) while proceeding to wreck the world.

He says he wants nothing more than a great fight then hides for most of the expansion and even runs away from potential conflict.

He's about as threatening as Team Rocket and rather than viewing him as my arch nemesis, I spend most interactions with him just wishing the game would let me pound his face in and forget about him forever.

Which is why this quest is so frustrating for me, as we once again are presented as mere pawns for Zenos' amusement with no real personal importance when in truth it's the exact opposite.

In this quest, we are made to feel like nothing compared to Zenos, when in fact Zenos is nothing without us but a spoiled jerk with aspirations of grandeur that he somehow achieves through dues ex machina without much explanation.

Sorry, rant over. I really hate Zenos and this quest. I hope they make this quest entirely skippable so I never again have to endure this wholly ironic scene.

Note that I said nothing about the difficulty of the quest itself idk why ppl keep assuming anyone who didn't like this quest must hate it purely because of the mechanics.

"lol get gud it was easy lol"
