There is another deciding factor, and I don't know if the game actually gives the solution (I don't remember) : When exactly was Sazza captured. If Halsin was still in the grove, he could have gotten info about who the leaders were before he made his move. (She 's happy and proud to talk about Gut and the absolute to her captors) If she was captured after he left, he would have had no clue about Gut, Minthara or Razglin before going off. So then it was just trying to find out what the story was with all these tadpoles assembling here.
Edit : and here's another time-problem. Arradin arriving at the grove , fleeing from the goblins is an indicator that they left on the mission not very long ago. A few days maybe. But Kagha setting the ritual in motion as the result of increasing attacks from monsters indicates that he's left for quite some time already. Same for the druids sending out birds for news of Halsin. It shows he's gone for a long time. Longer than expected. (Arradin had not yet returned so they had no news of what happened. They were worried was just because Halsin stayed away longer than expected) Nettie doesn't mention Sazza at all, so she is unaware of the absolute and Gut. Neither are Wyll, Kagha or Rath. They know only that the goblins must have a competent leader to keep them in check but nothing more.
