Many players have completely missed the option to join forces with the absolute. If they do side with it the goblins turn hostile anyway.
Make Edowin or a dream point the player towards a contact person to the absolute
Make that absolute priest explain what matters to the player
You will not turn into a mindflayer, that does not happen to true souls. Keep all the benefits of the tadpole.
You will be rewarded for helping the absolute
You are on the stronger side that will aquire dominance over all of faerun. Explain why this is a likely scenario.
You have nothing to gain from siding with the druids. They can't help you and you would be defeated along with them.
Right now the absolute route is disjointed.
Manage to not turn the goblins hostile.
Have really good rolls in dialogue with Minthara.
Butcher the druids and tieflings for no apparent benefit.
Goblins hate you anyway.
The absolute is a new cult trying to expand its ranks. They have no reason to scare potential recruits away.
