Need Help Wtih Starter Quest

I just made it to Seitung Harbor and I'm beginning the quest "Looking For Trouble" However, when I try and make it to the Monastary I get boned by the horde of tengu that hang out around the monostary. So far, I've just been running past them and hoping they get tired of chasing me. When I get to the Monoastary though, I'm having trouble completeing it. When I die I gotta get pass the horde of Tengu yet again. So basiclly, is there something I'm missing with this quest? Any help would be appriciated.

I'm a lvl 10 A/N if that helps at all.

Get to higher level, and buy better armor.. it's the only way, unless your lev 20 guildies are willing to come and waste their time steamrolling through everything so that you can finish the mission.
