Walkthrough
Walk towards the immediate objective, killing heket and harpies along the way. Be careful not to aggro too many enemies. It will spell death for you. AoE skills are extremely helpful in killing the masses of enemies. A MM is helpful for a meat shield, but be careful if the minions aggro too many enemies. After killing the first commander, Render, move on to the next commander. If you wait a little bit, the Heket will attack the Vabbian Guards nearby who can help you if you are having issues with killing the Heket. After killing both commanders, head back to Kamveh for your reward.

Alternative Walkthrough
This is not a true walkthrough, but it works. The quest implies that the Harpies and Heket are at war... take advantage of this. With a few running and damage reduction skills just run into the Harpie/Heket camp and bring them to the other one - make sure to bring the boss along - and watch the full scale war. Clean up any leftovers and you're done. If soloing, then bring an AoE spell/skill so you get the XP while they kill each other; this is very useful if trying to lvl up heroes - just don't take quest reward ever.

Initial dialogue
Kamveh
 * "Greetings, . I have a situation that requires your attention. In the past, merchants stopped here as they traveled through Vabbi. They sold us all manner of goods that sustained our people, but they have since stopped coming. The hostilities between the skree harpies and heket have been boiling, but it's gotten out of hand and is affecting our village. It's a simple job. Find the leaders of these two warring tribes and eliminate them. Of course we are prepared to pay you for your trouble."

Reward dialogue
Kamveh
 * "Thank you so much. With those leaderless beasts regrouping, the merchants won't have to worry about their safety. They will surely return and our people will no longer go hungry or subsist without amenities. We are grateful."
