the way i would do it

currently: ending the shadow as a good Druid person has a small side quest that makes you the new 'best bear" & rewards you with special Druid weapon [imune to hold spell or some such]
mod: also add a copy of the idol that the player can keep or hand over to thieves

result: all questlines are now possible for the cost of one line of code... technically you didn't take the druids' idol so no change to your journal is needed


Luke Skywalker: I don't, I don't believe it.
Yoda: That is why you failed.
