Cloakwood Lodge

map of First Cloakwood area The First Cloakwood area, AR 2200, is also known as the Cloakwood Lodge [2]
 * Enemies: Tasloi, Dread Wolves, Worgs, Huge Spiders, Wolves

Exit to the next Cloakwood Forest by any zone wallother than the one the party entered from.
 * Coran on the bridge, 1515, 690.
 * Cloak of Non-Detection from some Tasloi at 4390, 3470, part of a quest from Gurke in the Jovial Juggler in Beregost. The quest does not have to have been received for the Tasloi and their Cloak to spawn. Imoen may not have enough Lore to ID the cloak, but Eldoth probably does.
 * Aldeth Sashenstar at 2650, 2100, is outside the Hunting Lodge, yelling for help, and says that his friend has been killed by Druids for hunting in the area. Three druids approach; the leader, Seniyad, asks the player not to intervene, and that Aldeth was responsible for the death of Druids, not animals. Aldeth denies this. Choosing to aid either the Druids or Aldeth gets 2000 XP once the other is dead. Side with the Druids, and they warn of the dangers of the Shadow Druid faction in Cloakwood. Side with Aldeth, and Aldeth thanks the player and invites the party to visit the Manycoins Merchant League in Baldur's Gate. This invitation can lead to another quest in that building, which is otherwise inaccessible. This and the high XP from the Druids makes siding with Aldeth an obvious choice, in terms of rewards. And since it later transpires that the Shadow Druids are opposed to the Iron Throne, it is probably the morally better one also.
 * The Hunting Lodge 2450, 1710; cabin with a locked chest, containing Necklace, two Potions, Arrows, 395GP
