Wild Forest

Wild Forest is accessible in Shadows of Amn campaign of from Chapter 2. It is the recruitment location for Neera and the location of her companion quest Neera's Hidden Refuge. 
==Gameplay (Walk-through)==
According to Neera, who seeks to join the party and go with you to the Hidden Refuge, there are numerous traps throughout the area. 
A gnome called Quaid stands by a broken cart. You could speak with him and see if he needs help mending it. He may know of hidden dangers in the Wild Forest, or the path to follow to get to the Hidden Refuge.
A Speaking Snake, of all things can be encountered. If you talk to it, the snake says -"Death Awaitsss,(CHARNAME RACE)! Death awaits, and I show the way!". More chatter and warnings will continue, and promises of Death awaiting if you pass the snake. The beast never turns hostile but will move at rapid speed towards anyone who may attack it. Is this some kind of trick or illusion? A Wild Mage's Hidden Forest defense?
A small group of Hobgoblins will attack the party if you are observed. Their corpses may provide some treasure.
Two Gnoll Elites and a Captain can be found, as well as a monstrous Ettin that seems to be hunting them.
Several wild beasts including great cats, spiders and Wyverns roam the area, and they will attack on sight.
Depending on the path you take, you could come upon a pair of hostile Ogres. If you approach or engage the creatures, there is a possible surprise from an invisible Ogre Mage.
A cluster of ten kobolds may be seen, and they will attack if you are observed.
In the northeast side of the Wild Forest is seen a destroyed bridge that used to span the churning waters of the stream. As you near it, a text display reads "This bridge appears rotten and uncrossable. The water flowing beneath is polluted with magic. It has an unwholesome and eerie look that is distinctly unwelcoming". If Neera is in your party, she will help out with the situation, as long as she is close enough to the broken structure to examine it. If so, there will be a 2000 experience point reward for each party member, and she will solve the issue (which she actually created earlier as part of the defenses for the Hidden Refuge). Otherwise, find a "A Pile of Gravel" which may help as well.

== Notes ==
* The method of dispelling the illusory bridge, is possibly a homage to one of the obstacles thwarting attempts to reach the Holy Grail in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
