Emerald Grove - important places

A group of goblins. They appear once you approach the grove's gate. You must defeat them to use this entrance. People from the Grove will help you win this battle.

Stone door. This is a secret entrance to an underground passage that you can discover by passing a skill check. Exploring this location allows you to access Druid Grove in an alternative way. There is a backpack with thief's tools and other loot nearby.

Prison. A goblin named Sazza is being held in a cage. You can let a tiefling shoot her dead or stand in front of the cage and stop the execution by passing a skill check (failing triggers combat). You can then ask Sazza about the goblin healer, open her cage (use the thief's tools) and help her escape from the Grove. If you save Sazza, she will help you reach the Goblin Camp.

Silvanus Idol. It is located in the central part of the area where the druid ritual is performed. You can steal it as a quest for Mol. The idol guarantees blessings (bonuses to Nature and Animal Handling).

A group of clerics. You'll meet two clerics watching over their dying friend. They'll attack you if you tell them you've survived the shipwreck. You can also offer to help them kill the Owlbear in its den.

Emerald Grove - Companions

Wyll is a warlock encountered during your first visit to the Emerald Grove. You'll find him on the training grounds.

Underground Passage

The Underground Passage is a dungeon underneath the Druid Grove. You can access it through three different entrances:

1. The secret stone door left of the Druid Grove entrance. You have to pass a skillcheck to use it.
2. The stone door next to the makeshift prison - pictured above. This is the best choice if you intend to help Sazza escape the grove.
3. The secret passage in the Emerald Grove. Its location is included in the description of this bonus location.

In the dungeon, you can encounter a group of goblins led by Findal. The easiest way to surprise your opponents is to begin your exploration of the Underground passage from the south as you can then shove one of the goblins into a pit and attack the other ones from high ground.

Pictured above, near the water, is a corpse holding a Charred Key. You can use the key to unlock one of the exits from this dungeon.

In the southern part of the passage is a trapped heavy chest. The trap is very dangerous, so you should identify it (skillcheck) and disarm it. The chest contains gold and a green staff - Nature's Snare.

The Guardian Statue shown in the picture is also a dangerous trap, dealing tons of damage from a distance. You can use your own ranged attacks to destroy it.

Secluded Chamber

The Secluded Chamber entrance is the stone door in the western part of the Druid Grove.

Inside you'll find Zevlor, who you can meet during the Save the Refugees quest. There is also a ladder here you can climb to reach the waterfall area at the back of the Grove.

Tieflings Hideout

The access to the hideout is linked to Doni, who resides in the northern part of the Druid Grove. He'll disappear after the first meeting, but you can return here after saving Mirkon from the harpies. This will give you access to the hideout. It has two entrances - you can use a hidden hatch next to Doni (pictured above) or a passageway at a rock crevice located a little further east, next to the waterfall.

Inside the hideout is Mol, who can give you the Steal the Sacred Idol quest.

Kagha and Nettie

There are stone chambers within the Emerald Grove. The entrance is near the ritual site. It's an important location tied to one of the main quests.

During your first visit you'll witness an important scene revolving around the Archdruid Kagha, Rath and Arabella. Depending on your chosen dialogue and passed skill checks, the girl could live or die here, while the Druids could possibly turn hostile.

In the Druid's Chambers you'll find Nettie, who you need to talk to for one of the main quests. You can accept a vial of poison from her and promise you'll drink it when you feel yourself transforming. Otherwise, she'll try to poison you herself.

The final room is the Enclave Library. There are 4 stone slabs for runes in the Library. They are connected to a puzzle, which we described in detail on the Stone slabs with runes in Emerald Grove page. Completing the puzzle will unlock a secret vault with valuable items.

Passing a Perception skill check will reveal the secret passage pictured above. After successfully picking a lock, you can move to an Underground Passage, but you'll come into contact with a poison cloud. You can use this passage if Nettie traps you in the library, or if you want to access the parasite notes and Halsin's journal in the library without meeting Nettie.
