Waukeen's Rest is an area that highlights some of the flaws in BG 3 in general. You can easily see the burning inn from the destroyed bridge on the Risen Road and yet decide to deal with the toll house first, then rescue the Zhent survivors, take a long rest... all knowing you'll arrive in time to deal with the fire.
This removes any sense of urgency, due to the static nature of quests. You're never forced to make a decision between aiding the Flaming Fist in dealing with the fire or coming to the rescue of the survivors of the gnoll raid.
