TheWoWDBWhat I did to bypass the door, as it was closed after several relogs and retaking of the quest, if you have the toy "Zhevra Cushion" Just press your nose against the door, place the zhevra cushion down, mouseover in front of you and sit on it, when you get up, you can just walk through!

This quest was bugged for me - the barrier was meant to be a trick one (once inside you can see what I mean) but was actually a solid wall, I could see the NPCs through the small gap but could not get in. I had to suicide by the door and ghost res inside.
After that I turned in the quest as normal and afterwards, the wall was no longer "there" and I could pass in and out with no issues.
It's bugged for me. Blocked door, can see NPCs through the crack, but am unable to get in there.
Taking the Tamed Seahorse isn't an option- clicking on it does nothing (and yep, I dismounted before I tried it).
Can see the quest giver exclamation point on my map, but cannot get into the building to get the quest.. which frustrates me because I'm stuck at 90/130 towards my Loremaster title, and it seems to be the only quest left in the zone that I can find 0-o
Everyone else is right- strip off your gear and aggro a puffer fish and let it kill you next to the door- you can res on the inside of it and you'll have access to the quest giver.

Description
The Captain used the information you gathered for him to make a forward post under the terrace to our west. He's been preparing there for some kind of attack against the naga. You should go to him immediately and inform him of the scope of what you've witnessed. Our force is small, and I fear for our soldiers if we charge in too recklessly. Take my sea horse. It knows the way.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Visions of the Past: The Slaughter of Biel'aran Ridge
Look, I know this is asking a lot during a time like this, but I need you to tear yourself away from this defeat for a moment. I will tend to these soldiers - you need to find the location of that battle with the Kvaldir General to the west that you told me about.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Clear Goals
I see. The news you bring is grim, but I was not entirely unprepared for such possibilities. Without any effective scouting of naga numbers, I knew our plan was risky, but that's why we established this forward post. Let me put it to you plainly, <class>.
