Ugh, no, quest markers are one step away from MMO "go here, do that, we don't even bother typing directions or stuff" quests... ...
That is what the game has right now "no written directions" in the journal.
If someone tells me I should talk to someone else they would describe the whereabouts or point the finger and say "They live in that house over there" which is nothing else but a marker.
The description of the "Your homeplane is under attack" is "There is a rift somewhere near by".
