The “Escape from Squid Coast” quest will lead you back to your camp, although things will soon take a turn for the worse as you discover that your camp is being attacked by enemies and is already burning. Your task is going to be to beat down the enemies, save the villagers, and make your way towards the harbour.
Escape from Squid Coast Quest

From the starting point you need to get back to your camp. On your way, there will be a lot of enemies. Follow the quest marker and move forward by defeating the enemies. Most enemies can be taken down with just your basic sword, but you can switch it up with your ranged weapon for added reach.

You will also find a chest that has a firework arrow artifact along the way, so don’t forget to pick that up. Keep a tab on your health after leaving camp, as you could easily take a lot of damage in early game and lead to an early death. Switch up your tactics between ranged and melee weapons to clear the enemies around you.
When you are inside the camp, investigate it and you will find the whole camp burning. Now defeat hordes of enemies and then speak to the villagers.

The villagers will tell you that there are still monsters roaming around the ruins. He will ask you to rescue the villagers and tell them to meet at the village gate. Defeat the monsters and rescue the villagers by following the quest markers in your map.
You need to clear the path towards the harbour by defeating the monsters. After that, go towards the harbour and talk with the villagers. In the harbour, talk with the villagers and he will tell you that the Squid Coast is filled with monsters and ask you to leave the village.
