One Baldur’s Gate 3 player has spotted a “major hint” for one key NPC, proving how clear it was that her allegiances weren’t all we’re led to believe.

Baldur’s Gate 3 is filled with secrets and hidden clues for players to discover on their second, third, or even fourth playthrough. As such, the game rarely gets boring, especially when it comes to romancing certain companions, exploring different classes, or discovering all those secrets.

In fact, players are discovering new hints and clues over six months after its full release – proving just how clear certain NPC alliances are when you know what you’re looking for.

One major Baldur’s Gate 3 hint reveals Kagha’s alliances

Sharing their discovery on Reddit, one Baldur’s Gate 3 player revealed how they “noticed a major hint about a certain person today.”

They went on to explain: “So today I noticed that Kagha is the only druid in the grove whose leafy cape on her chest piece is blackened and dead. Everyone else has bright green leaves on their chest pieces. Her being a shadow druid is right there in front of us!”

As many may already know, Kagha is the defacto leader of the Druids in act one, with Halsin being ‘indisposed’. Kagha has a relatively questionable style of leadership, which is based on her alliances with the Shadow Druids, who are quietly surrounding the grove in Act One.

During the first playthrough, lots may not realize her alliances, but as the player highlighted, it’s actually pretty obvious when looking at her clothing.

“I never even noticed that” commented one user, going on to say “Honestly if I did before learning of the shadow Druid thing I probably would’ve just assumed it was some character design showing her more cruel demeanor compared to the other druids.”

While many fans were shocked, others revealed similar key hints: “Also, maybe this isn’t as revealing, but whenever you try to talk to the rats where Kagha is they just disregard you and don’t speak.”

“Geez, she’s practically wearing the colors of a rival gang. And none of these druids noticed?” Joked one user, slamming the grove and calling them “the most ineffectual grove of druids in all of Faerun?”

It’s one thing for players to miss the detail, but for the Druids to not spot an infiltration among their ranks is certainly an oversight on their part – which could have been devastating.
