After going through this area for about the 50th time today, I decided to stop and look at a bunch of pictures that are sitting on the west wall under an awning. There's a sheep, a half naked woman, a regal looking man, a waterfall, and a creepy little girl. As I was about to walk away, the girl blinked. Freaked out, I turned back around. Sure enough, the girl in this group of pictures blinks every few seconds.
You know, just in case the werewolves, zombies, creepy music, and giant man-eating earthquakes weren't enough for you.
This quest is pretty straight forward, just open three of the doors in the square. A frightened citizen will come out, sometimes a rampaging worgen will follow but you will get credit regardless. Once you have opened 3 doors it is not possible to open anymore. Also, side note, though you can see a little into the houses when the door is open you cannot go inside.

Description
The civilians aren't safe here anymore. Not even inside their homes. We're doing our best to stop the worgen from getting indoors, but their numbers are too great. Help us by evacuating the civilian homes. My father's army in the prison district will be able to better protect them.

Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- All Hell Breaks Loose
Worgen! My father had warned me that Archmage Arugal's creations had run amok. But where are they coming from? I suppose it doesn't matter. Help us make quick work of them. We'll show them what we Gilneans are made of!
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Salvage the Supplies
Listen, <name>. We can't let our supplies get destroyed. With Gilneas walled off from the outside world, we won't last through winter if we lose much more of our stock. Please help me salvage what you can.
