No forced PvP in this quest, but in my opinion a gentlehorde only kills guards, of which there are plenty.

I came here to check if we could skip this quest as I tend to object to killing civilians. I accidentally aggro'd one of the neutral NPCs because Blizzard like giving mages AoE built into their single target rotations, and it turns out they say "they made me do it" and run away at low health/after being in combat for a little while (one ran away while polymorphed).

Description
This place seems fairly well-defended for a manufacturing facility, doesn't it? <Lilian shrugs.> I suppose we'll have to kill them, then.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Gunpowder Research
I suppose that, before we steal all the Kul Tirans' violently explosive gunpowder and use it against them, we should learn how they make the stuff.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Death Trap
We started this mission with a goal, but not much of a plan. I think I can see the pieces coming together, though. <Lilian surveys the horizon, thinking.> Place these explosives over on the southwest edge of town. Somewhere inconspicuous. We'll meet again over there. In the meantime...
