you can get to embark before you get to LA...there is a scout in ascalon city (all mission cities have them: "The Zaishen Scout allows players access to Embark Beach from any Cooperative Mission outpost, port town or Eye of the North town or outpost." )
LOTS of new players get stuck at embark beach....they should have NOT put a ! over his head since they ingrained us to click on npcs with one over them!
(check out minister cho's estate, the great northern wall...etc).
You can quickly find that you can not return to your previous place if you have not yet gotten to one of the main port cities (la or kaineng) and do not know which npc to talk with to return.
A problem that should have been resolved a long time ago.
