Description claims to need to visit nether for getting "Nether Star"

Modpack Version:
0.2.13

Describe the bug
The description of the quest "Nether Star" in chapter "Powah to the Person!" claims, that you need to visit the Nether to get a nether star. Also, a nether star item is the pre-requisite to craft nitro crystals in mod "Powah".

But you get Nether stars way before entering the nether or the end. The "natural progress" (if playing chapters in order) have you even create a wither machine and automate nether star production (in "The Slaugherhouse"), before you go anywhere ("Exploring Nether Regions")

Not a big deal, just creating a small "eh??" - moment. ;)

Expected behavior
I would keep the current quest structure. It gives a nice break of getting Powah to absurd levels. Just make a 4th wall break into the quest description explaining that - although you might be swimming in nether stars - in this modpack you have to go-there-seen-it to progress.

Example:


To get your hands on a Nether Star, you'll need to visit the Nether Dimension first.

See how in the chapter "Exploring Nether regions"

Note: Even if you already have a stack of Nether Stars from your automated Wither farm from chapter "The Slaughterhouse", you still need to visit the nether to progress. Why? Because the science devition commitee of interesting modpack design demands it.

Now, after I actually played through the nether section, I have to say that I'd probably rather change the quest structure and make the slaughterhouse-path with the Wither factory an alternative path to "beat the modpack" (so you can either go the mob-farm route or go through the end/nether.

Well, I've decided on a slightly different solution, and that's by changing the requirements for making nitro crystals to also include a Blaze Lantern in the recipe (which you need to go to the Nether for) and change the quest text accordingly too. There's nothing stopping players from making netherstars up front if they want, but as intended, they will need to at least visit the nether for a bit in order to progress. I feel this clears it up a bit and keeps to the intended progression.
