Notes and Trivia

• If Investigate Kagha has been completed and Kagha is persuaded to abandon the ritual, the druids will not immediately attack all outsiders if this item is stolen. They will instead attempt to search the party if they get too close.

Where to find

The idol is found in the Sacred Pool of the Druid Grove X: 241 Y: 510.

• The idol must be stolen to obtain it. Stealing this item will cause the druids to immediately become hostile and attack both the party and the Tieflings in the Druid Grove.
• The idol can also be stolen after the ritual is stopped (either by completing Investigate Kagha or saving the grove from the Goblins). In this case the druids do not automatically become hostile if you are not caught in the act. Shortly after stealing the idol one of the druids will interrogate the party, passing a deception or intimidation check will let the player get away.
