The Idol of Silvanus is in the center of the Sacred Pool {{Coords|243|507}} right in the middle of the Rite of Thorns ritual and surrounded by druids. Stealing the idol while the ritual is underway starts a cutscene where the signal is given and the druids commence a pre-arranged slaughter of every tiefling within the Grove.

Since the happens | The Idol of Silvanus is in the center of the Sacred Pool {{Coords|243|507}} right in the middle of the Rite of Thorns ritual and surrounded by druids. Stealing the idol while the ritual is underway starts a cutscene where the signal is given and the druids commence a pre-arranged slaughter of every tiefling within the Grove. The druids will also be hostile to the party. Since the fight happens in real time, leaving the tieflings to their fate or not moving quickly enough to defend as many of them as possible, causes them to be killed by the Emerald Grove druids. The final stand takes place in the makeshift prison where all the tiefling civilians are holed up. If enough of them are killed then [[Save the Refugees]] is completed as a failed quest. It should be noted that [[Zevlor]] is usually one of the first to fall since he faces First Druid [[Kagha]] in battle. | ||
However, the Idol can be stolen without angering the druids, if {{Quest|Investigate Kagha}} has been completed and the Rite stopped (but this quest has to be started ''before'' stopping the ritual or it will not be offered). After this, the party can use sneaking skills to stealthily steal the idol. Spells like {{SAI|Darkness}}, {{SAI|Fog Cloud}}, and {{SAI|Greater Invisibility}} are also immensely helpful. {{SAI|Mage Hand}} can also be used to throw the idol far enough away that the druids will not observe a party member picking it up. | However, the Idol can be stolen without angering the druids, if {{Quest|Investigate Kagha}} has been completed and the Rite stopped (but this quest has to be started ''before'' stopping the ritual or it will not be offered).
