Kinelory is an idiot who shouldn't be allowed outside. This quest is pretty hard because Kinelory doesn't avoid ANY of the enemies and usually walks right to or through them.
You have to protect Kinelory as he makes her way around the farm (counter-clockwise inside the cliffs) to the house on the opposite side where you have to defeat the undead Apothecary Jorell. I would strongly recommend taking out as many of the mobs outside the house as possible before allowing Kinelory enters; she doesn't pull the mobs as she walks past them (at least she didn't for me) but they come running once the fight starts. Apothecary Jorell is an easy fight alone, but it's very difficult to keep Kinelory alive against Jorell and three other mobs.
Once Jorell is slain Kinelory collects items from the house and then runs (and I mean RUNS) back to Quay around the upper rim of the cliffs (clockwise). There are only a few scattered orcs on the way back, but she really books it so "stay on your paws" :-)
If Kinelory dies, abandon quest, run back to Quay and wait for Kinelory to respawn (about 5 min for me).Edit: can't spell to save my life

<Quae begins to go through the folder.> Expansion...control of territory... these undead aren't cooking up anything new, but they're planning to roll over all of Arathi. We need to disrupt their plans. I'll keep a lookout from up here. You go with Kin, and get those invasion plans.

I've seen Kinelory look way worse after a night in the tavern than she does now. You obviously did a good job protecting her. Refuge Pointe will want to know of our success. I'm going to stay here with Kin and let her catch her breath. Go on ahead without us.
