On a quite new character, I had to do some of the old campaign quests (2/9) until helping to free the Runecarver's arm. I got The First Move when I turned in The Weak Link and returned to Oribos.
You can talk to Highlord Bolvar Fordragon instead of Polemarch Adrestes to skip until Korthia.

When I skipped it, I immediately got Call of the Primus. Talk to Tal-Inara in Oribos to start the questline for Zereth Mortis.
She also offers a skip, I've you have done the campaign with an alt before. You'll start there with 3/7 chapters of Secrets of the First Ones and unlocked world quests.

Beware that you will miss the rewards of the first three chapters, if you skip them.
Edit: With the Hotfix for March 18th, players who skip the Zereth Mortis story will get the reputation with the Enlightened.

Campaign:
Chapter 1

Call of the Primus - Talk to Tal-Inara, turn in at The Primus after that
A Hasty Voyage - click Anima Wyrm behind you. Click Blast of Decay and Necrotic Barrage to fill the bar. Don't skip the cinematic
click Kick, Hold Tight! and Pull the Reins to match the emotes.
Long Lost Firim - find Firim and click the 4 objects
Give Me A Hand - follow Firim, click the door, then Disabled Automa and defeat Genesis Guardian
A Mutual Exchange - go to south, step on the teleporter and click your extra button Activate. Kill Yggdreth the Despoiler and loot the core
For Research Purposes - collect 12 items
The Road to Haven - mount Polly
Forging Connections - go to Haven, talk to Elder Kreth
Defending Haven - kill 13 enemies
Destroying the Destructors - destroy 4 objectives
This Old Waystone - follow Elder Ara to the cave. Stand in front of the waystone to get the extra button Open the Waystone. Click the stone, turn in in Oribos
The Forces Gather - return to Zereth Mortis and talk to Elder Kreth

Chapter 1 took about 25 minutes with itemlevel <190.

Chapter 2:

Chapter 2 took about 40 minutes with itemlevel <200.
I got several itemlevels, about 1900 rep with The Enlightened, some Anima and 12 renown so far (chapter 1 & 2).

Chapter 3:

Danger Near and Far - go to the marked area and enter the building
A Mysterious Voice - click the door, watch dialogue and kill attacking enemies
Core of the Matter - return to Haven and talk to Elder Kreth
Seeking the Unknown - enter the building at 33.63 65.78 and click the information
Finding Firim - find the NPC, click its corpse and go to the cave
Security Measures - click the Sensory Synchronizer near you. Leave the cave and reset 10 traps
Unseen Agents - kill 3 enemies
Now You May Speak - talk to Firim and click the console
Surveying Cyphers - examine the 3 concordances marked on your map. Visit the fourth location. Kill Maw-Frenzied Lupine and click the item behind him. Return to the cave
Cyphers of the First Ones - click the console again. Unlock the first option and get your Pocopoc
The Way Forward - return to Haven

Chapter 3 took about 30 minutes with itemlevel 200. It gave less rewards than the previous ones.
In total I got about 2k reputation, 15 itemlevels and 15 renown.

For Research Purposes

Collect 12 Intact Automa Fragments from Alerted Automa within Genesis Vestibule

	Intact Automa Fragments (12)

Description

I have taken pains not to disturb the automa during my time in Zereth Mortis, and so far they have paid little attention to me. It seems recent events have changed that. Again, let me be clear that I have no wish to harm the creations of the First Ones. But if, in the course of your efforts, conflict with the automa becomes inevitable, we must ensure that some good can come of it. If I can examine fragments of fallen automa, it may provide knowledge to use against the Mawsworn. Go carefully.
