Intro

This is not really a "guide" but a "support guide" because the core is a video guide made by "ExtremeCereal", the big work is on him. What I did is narrowing down the main parts and adding timestamps for easy following. If you're not familiar with the questline I would recommend to watch the full video instead. This guide online contains simplified information to clear all the quests fast without getting lost.
You can find the full videoguide here:


Basic recommendations before starting

You should clear your etc. inventory before starting and getting enough pots in case you need them if your character is weak. Still, something important to keep in mind about the afterlands is that you can go in and out through Ashkaya if you don't want to do the full questline in a row. If you do this, you can use up the keys you collected up to that point to save up inventory space.
You can get back into the afterlands through the quest notificator and then talk to Ashkaya to continue where you were

Abbreviations

CT = Click through, many times referring you can spam space bar safely to go through dialogs ASAP. (If you do this in the land of innocence be very careful to stan far enough from the candy plate)
W / R / C / I = Land of Warriors/Riches/Contemplation/Innocence
NW = Move to next world option from Ashkaya
