Overview[edit | edit source]

Personality[edit | edit source]

Kagha wants to prove her authority over the Emerald Grove, and is willing to take drastic action. She has come to see the Tiefling Refugees as parasites, and calls them devils and a rot to be cleansed.

Kagha justifies her actions as those of a watchful broodmother. As such, Kagha admires Drow and Duergar for their culture of self-preservation. If the player character is a drow or duergar, she will attempt to appeal to them by calling their presence a gift.

Involvement[edit | edit source]

Act One[edit | edit source]

Zevlor Zevlor requests the party's aid on dealing with the acting Archdruid of the Grove, Kagha. He says that she, alongside the other Druids, is preparing a ritual to seal off the Grove from the rest of the world, leaving the tiefling refugees in danger.

The party later finds Kagha reprimanding a tiefling child named Arabella Arabella for attempting to steal the Idol of Silvanus. The party and Rath Rath, another druid, can intervene to save the child. Should the party fail to persuade Kagha or decide to not intervene, Arabella will attempt to run, and Kagha's snake will chase her down and kill her.

Investigate Kagha[edit | edit source]

Kagha can be investigated investigated and potentially confronted by the party. This must be done before Halsin Halsin is rescued from the Goblin camp, otherwise the quest will be cancelled early.

If searching the sanctum, Kagha's personal chest can be found. Lockpicking it will reveal a letter that will advance the Investigate Kagha quest and guide the party to a covert meeting in the Swamp. There, after a fight with Ancient Mud Mephits and Wood Woads, the party will find out Kagha is secretly planning to hand over the Grove to the Shadow Druids of the Cloakwood.

If returning and confronting Kagha about this, the Shadow Druids will reveal themselves and ask Kagha to attack the party and everyone else inside. The party can persuade Kagha to see her wrongs, and make her join the Grove's druid's side instead.

Should Kagha survive the ordeal, she'll show remorse for her actions. She'll thank the party, and will proceed to let the tieflings stay at the Grove for as long as they need. If the player character is a druid, she will bestow them the title of Faithwarden, and give them the Pale Oak.

Kagha's Fate[edit | edit source]

      • Halsin allows Kagha to remain in the Grove, however she is demoted to novice. (If the party returns to the area later in Act 1, she will be standing on the path overlooking the grove -- near where Zevlor and Aradin fought when the party first arrived.)
    • Arabella died, her parents live
      • Halsin leaves her fate in Locke Locke and Komira Komira's hands. They will attempt to poison Kagha at the party, which will kill her unless the party intervenes.
