Does all of AE3 need to be beaten before taking totem quest?

During a run today the guy spawned, but wouldn't let me take his quest. I've only gotten as far as captive audience as its impossible to get in a group that stays for the whole thing. The just kill the shadow prisoner and bounce.

Thanks.

P.S. - anyone feel like running all of CA later? ;)

Are you lvl 50? Have to be 50 for the quest.

That would be it. Thanks.
