After exiting the area, you can explore a bit. Once done, head to the gate to trigger this quest. Just follow the road until you encounter a peddler being attacked by goblins. Rescuing the peddler named Reynard will allow you to take further quests from him. He'll also enable you to enhance your equipment early on which will really help a lot in your journey. Continue forth until you reach the Encampment to complete the quest.
