Larian Studios Forums Divinity: Original Sin 2 Divinity - Original Sin 2 - General Early game XP and leveling is terrible

I'm still stuck. I'm at level 3 with two level 2 party members. I'm not high enough level to defeat any of the mobs in the fort or in the prison and I cannot find any quests or sources of XP at all.

I must be missing something right? Surely they wouldn't design the game this way.
