Druids care about nature and their grove so they would be upset if someone upset that balance. They are also rational beings who can understand that the Tieflings have a concrete option to get out of their hair if they would actually bother to help them. If you "side with" the druids now Kagha encourages you to genocide the refugees because she is xenophobic and part of a hate group. That is bad writing.

This plays into that idea that the other druids are scared of the refugees destroying their livelihood (even though the Halfing trader is fine with them) and look to Kagha the demagogue for easy answers. I don't understand how they think Kagha is doing what is needed had you not conveniently showed up to do it for her, since she never undertakes anything against the Tieflings on her own initiative.


Some things to clarify there. Some druid care about balance. Others are the embodiment of the furies of nature. The Druids of Malar for example delights in to hunting and murdering sensient being in ritual hunts and most of them are even were creature. Khaga is two things. An High Elf (Or sun elf) that by nature are very Elitist and not open toward outsiders and is also more Alligned toward the Shadow Druids the shadow Druids are problematic and often are also very cruel and unforgiving as for them outsiders are always a threat to be dealt with. Now combine this two things and you have Khaga a Druid that wants to protect her circle at all costs even at the price to eliminate the refugees that she sees as threat. Stealing an idol is always a grave offence for a normal druid but for a Shadow Druid? Steal an idol from them is a death sentence.
Khaga represent the extremist druids that believe it or not are not a rarity in the Forgotten Realms and they can also stay in a Druidic circle with other Druids that don't share her point of view.

Now Tiefling. They don't come from HELL or the Abyss. They are not Devils nor Demons they are just poor sod that have Demonic or Devil blood most of them even Indirectly. You don't become a Tiefling you are born as one. They grew up not trusted or even rejected by civilization in many cases because of the Heritage they have. But they don't are necessarily evil they can become evil but most of the time is for their hard life rather than their Lineage. They are often the Underdog and not by choice but because of prejudice. Yes some of them can become evil by direct Lineage influence but most of them are just people that happen to have ancestry with a Demon or a Devil
