Upon entering the Grove, several Tieflings gather atop the ramparts, mourning the death of Kanon. If the party head to the ramparts immediately, they can speak with his sister {{CharLink|Arka}}. Regardless of whether the party interact with her, Arka will rush to the [[Makeshift Prison]] with {{CharLink|Memnos}} in close pursuit. | Upon entering the Grove, several Tieflings gather atop the ramparts, mourning the death of Kanon.

The party can decide whether to intervene. Aradin's later location will vary depending on this outcome. After the argument, Zevlor thanks the party for defending the Grove and asks them to speak with |Kagha to prevent the {{SmRarityItem|Rite of Thorns|override_icon=BOOK Generic Druid Rite Unfaded Icon.png|override_rarity=1}}. This initiates {{Quest|Save the Refugees}}. If the party has not yet initiated the subquest {{Quest|Get Help from Healer Nettie}}, they may learn of {{CharLink|Nettie}} through Zevlor, which adds this subquest under {{Quest|Find a Cure}}. | ||
Near the main entrance of the Grove, {{CharLink|Nadira}} can be found on the hill east of the ramparts at {{Coords|242|451}}. She is being stalked by a {{CharLink|Bugbear Assassin}} and will be murdered if the party fail to rescue her.
