If you enter the chamber alone, AND had put the Woedica Hood on beforehand, then she will drill you on the proper passwords. If you enter the chamber without the Woedica Hood, or if you enter the chamber with the rest of the party, the Shrouded Woman and her minions will all attack you. You will be given an opportunity to don the Woedica Hood beforehand, even if your character is a Godlike.

Your next goal is to reach the Shrouded Woman at #16.

You can trick him into practicing the password phrases to you. That requires one of an Intellect score of 13, a Resolve score of 13, or a bribe of 350cp. If you wish to complete the quest without fighting everyone, then you will need to bluff your way past him without arousing his suspicions. At #6 is Hafcmg, a Priest who stands guard over the entrance to the Temple proper.

You now start off at #1 on the Temple map.

The entrance to the Temple of Woedica is at #22. However, a corpse at #6 has the Woedica Hood, which is certainly helpful if you want to resolve the quest in a way that doesn't involve slaughtering everything in sight. Strictly speaking the fight isn't necessary to resolve the quest. There will be a fight at #4 against many Sporelings and Trolls, as well as a few Dank Spores.

You intially enter at #1 on the Catacombs map.

You'll encounter a ghost here, who explains that the real temple may be accessed through the Copperlane Catacombs, the entrance to which is at #13 in the Copperlane District. At #10 is a seemingly abandoned Temple of Woedica that has been reduced to a pile of rubble.

Your first step for this quest is to travel to the First Fires district in Defiance Bay.

It is that particular dialogue that triggers this quest. The Steward, during the conversation in which you take up stewardship over Caed Nua, will indicate that 'the queen' refers to the goddess named Woedica, and that she has a temple in the city of Defiance Bay. The completion of the previous quest which in turn leads to Caed Nua becoming your stronghold, and the Eastern Barbican being rebuilt which will allow you to explore areas beyond the stronghold. Maerwald, immediately prior to the final battle of that quest, will have occasionally made references to 'the queen.' You must first have completed The Old Watcher quest.
