=== The First Clue ===
=== The First Clue ===
The vital clue required to progress this quest lies in the '''[[Half-Torn Note]]''' within Kagha's chest (X:-484, Y:-7), in the [[Druid Grove#Emerald Grove|Emerald Grove]]. Interacting with the chest is considered a crime, meaning the player must engage with it while out of sight if they wish to avoid attitude lost. This is fairly easy to do, especially by hiding and entering turn-based mode, as the chest is tucked away in a dark corner behind a bookcase. The chest is locked and requires a [[Difficulty Class]] (DC) 10 [[Sleight of Hand]] check to open. If the player is unable to pass the [[Skill Check]], they can alternatively destroy the chest.

Reading the note reveals that Kagha has been corresponding with someone named [[Olodan]], who asked her to meet alone at the "swamp". The swamp that the note is referring to is located in the [[Putrid Bog]] (X:97, Y:224), in the southern part of the Overworld map.  
Reading the note reveals that Kagha has been corresponding with someone named [[Olodan]], who asked her to meet alone at the "swamp". The swamp that the note is referring to is located in the [[Putrid Bog]] {{Coords|97|224}}, in the southern part of the Overworld map.  


The swamp is guarded by 2 [[Wood Woad|Wood Woads]] and 4 [[Ancient Mud Mephit|Ancient Mud Mephits]] who will be hostile on sight. This can be a difficult fight depending on the level of the player and how well equipped and prepare they are. The Wood Woads have the ability to regenerate 10 [[Hit Points]] per turn, but are vulnerable to fire damage. The Ancient Mud Mephits are fragile, but will endlessly summon [[Young Mud Mephit|Young Mud Mephits]] until they are dealt with.

Once the enemies have been taken care of, search the large tree at the center of the island (X:86, Y:220). There will be an interactable '''Wooden Crevice''' on the south-west side of it that hides the '''Letter to Kagha.'''

With Kagha's secret now revealed, all that is required to finish this quest is to confront her back at the Druid Grove. Confronting Kagha forces the Shadow Druids [[Olodan]], [[Wren]], and [[Pinta]] - who have been hiding in the Grove by wildshaping themselves into Rats.

If they wish to, the player can try to convince Kagha to repent and break her alliance with the Shadow Druids ahead of the fight, making her into an ally in the upcoming confrontation. To do so, they must first pass a DC15 [[Persuasion]] check to stop her from immediately jumping into action.

After that they must also succeed on another DC10 [[Persuasion]] or [[Religion]] check to convince her to join their side. If the player has read the plaques inside the Emerald Grove and learned of the grove's history, they have an alternative option to succeed on a DC5 [[History]] check to convince Kagha. Some backgrounds (i.e. Wood-Elves) gets an auto-success option.

Alternatively, if the player uses the [[Detect Thoughts]] spell at the start (instead of the DC15 Persuasion check), they only need to pass a single DC13 [[Ability Check|Intelligence Check]] to convince Kagha.

After that, a fight breaks out against the three Shadow Druids, with Kagha either joining them or the party depending on the dialogue choices. The other occupants of the Druid Grove, such as Rath and Silver also join the player against the Shadow Druids.
