Lack of common sense in side quest

One of the side quests in the grand chasm has you running all over getting a lock box, making puzzles and hiding keys. The reason? To keep the draconians from getting the spiral crystal.

However:

The guy that gives you the quest, Zelen Battlehorn, is standing right next to a massive flowing river of lava. And there's tons more lava flowing all over dragonspyre.

How come I can't just walk over and toss the crystal into the lava? Maybe it wouldn't destroy it, but I guarentee you that the draconians would not be getting it back. Ever.

In my opinion, this side quest does not lack of common sense.

Why?

Well, a crystal like that can't simply be "Tossed into the lava". This crystal could be needed again for future purposes. If it's deep in a large pool of lava, it would be seriously difficult to ever even use it again, and not to mention the result of getting burned like an Evil Snowman that gets too close to a Firecat! The odds of the crystal getting destroyed in the lava are pretty high since a powerful thing like it must be fragile.

Anyway, the point is that even though the crystal is prone to be in the hands (Err, claws?) of draconians, it might be needed in an emergency that needs easier access to it than fishing it out of lava.

Sorry if this sounded a little rude, I was just giving my opinion and explaining the point of this quest.
