May need to click off the Revealing Dragon's Eye buff and reapply. Did not see the adds to kill the first time I did it.
If you click on the quest item and get the error "You can't do that yet". It means the buff is already applied.
Simply walk around Valdrakken and talk to NPCs with a orangey glow to kill the infiltrators.

Description
Welcome to Valdrakken, {race}. The climate in the city has been a bit warm of late, and I do not mean the weather. The Primalists are skulking about, fomenting dissent among the citizens of our city. Our foes are crafty. They have been disguising themselves as citizens of our city to hide from the Scalesworn. They know how to avoid my guards but will not suspect an outsider. Take this Dragon's Eye gem, it should help you see through their disguises. Go reveal and kill these infiltrators!

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Message Most Dire
Kalecgos would not speak of what happened in the Azure Span till you arrived. Whatever he has to share gives me a terrible sense of foreboding, <name>.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Eyes and Ears
The Primalists have been spewing their propaganda among the citizens of Valdrakken. Our enemies are too wily to say anything in the presence of my Scalesworn, but perhaps you might be able to get close enough to eavesdrop on their conversations.
