Starting zone question

I am fairly new to ESO. I just started an alt and being it is my second character I decided to skip the tutorial. I wound up in Vvardenfell instead of my Aldmeri Dominion starting zone that I believe is Khenarthi's Roost.
My question is should I stay in Vvardenfell and complete the zone? Or try and get to my alliance starting zone?
If I stay where I'm at would I be missing anything?
Thanks

    You won't miss anything by staying in Vvardenfell, but narratively, there's a few quests that will make more sense if you start the Main Quest by following the Hooded Figure first.

    You can start in Vvardenfell. But, the content will be somewhat harder than in the Original Zones. You can always travel to Khenarthi's Roost if you want.

    Note, the Tutorial is now much shorter, and gives you more control over where you start the game. You get to pick from a series of doors or portals.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    If you like the way they look and the race for the class, keep it and travel to the zone you want.

    The game makes much more sense storywise if you follow the playing it in order guide - if you just port to Khenarthi's Roost everything will work fine.

    If you want to do the original main quest, go to Auridon, Vulkhel Guard and walk around the wayshrine square until you meet a hooded stranger, who will direct you to the mysterious benefactor. You'll be off and running on the original quest that way, and end up on Kenarthi's Roost after the beginning, unless I'm misremembering things, which is possible.

    Thanks for the info
    I'm only level 6. Should I delete this character and start over and do the tutorial?
    Or just go to Khenarthi's Roost like you first suggested.
