Ah, now I checked the walkthrough for Seniyad, all right.

I understand your motivation to make (and release) the mod like this, but for me the impression of "OK, this was a scene to hand over the herbs" was rather strong. And, call me a weirdo, but I find it really hard to be confronted with such a situation (poisoned man, giving a name, dying) without any chance of helping him, or e.g. confronting the responsibles (Seniyad, when he will be met in Cloakwood.). I guess I would have preferred to find the herbs on the ground... Best would be of course to find the herbs throughout the game, as you mentioned. So, if any changes are planned for the next releases I would appreciate it. (To think about a possible quest is a nice thing for the integration in the BG1 Questpack, BTW.)

EDIT: I think I would prefer if the man hands over the herbs - saying he stole them from Seniyad, now being afraid of his revenge. (He would then diasappear, leaving no decission option for the player.) Then a small remark from Seniyad could be implemented, if the group still has some of the herbs when meeting him. Maybe Seniyad gives some herbs as a reward if the PC helped him fight the unfriendly hunter. And an option to ask Juoma whether the stolen herbs are from her could be included. Just a thought.
