But.. the quest doesn't trigger until you have completed The Way of the Voice.

I just bumped my thread in the CHS section.
you can skip the whole high hrothgar thingy.

I'm pretty sure he means that he has completed the Dawnguard and Main questlines.......... it's not like there's any other possible way to misunderstand that post.

Are you trying to be facetious, little man?

It actually means different levels of accomplishment for different players. In general, you don't beat TES. There is no defined.. ending. The MQ is only a small part of the experience.

Reading is fun, so it may behoove you to exercise that option and review the thread.
