In triangle $ABC$, $AB = 13$, $AC = 15$, and $BC = 14$.  Let $I$ be the incenter.  The incircle of triangle $ABC$ touches sides $BC$, $AC$, and $AB$ at $D$, $E$, and $F$, respectively.  Find the area of quadrilateral $AEIF$.

Since $AE$ and $AF$ are tangents from the same point to the same circle, $AE = AF$.  Let $x = AE = AF$.  Similarly, let $y = BD = BF$ and $z = CD = CE$.

Then $x + y = AB = 13$, $x + z = AC = 15$, and $y + z = BC = 14$.  Adding all these equations, we get $2x + 2y + 2z = 42$, so $x + y + z = 21$.  Subtracting the equation $y + z = 14$, we get $x = 7$.

By Heron's formula, the area of triangle $ABC$ is \[K = \sqrt{21(21 - 14)(21 - 15)(21 - 13)} = 84,\]so the inradius is $r = K/s = 84/21 = 4$.

We can divide quadrilateral $AEIF$ into the two right triangles $AEI$ and $AFI$.

The area of triangle $AEI$ is \[\frac{1}{2} \cdot AE \cdot IE = \frac{1}{2} \cdot x \cdot r = \frac{1}{2} \cdot 7 \cdot 4 = 14,\]and the area of triangle $AFI$ is also 14.  Therefore, the area of quadrilateral $AEIF$ is $14 + 14 = \boxed{28}$.
