Going to be starting a campaign in eberron in a 2 weeks and wanting to start with a phandelver type starter adventure since we’re all d&d virgins. I’m thinking I want them to tak the lightning rail from Sharn to Hatheril and then have the goblin capon the woods between there and Cragwar. Phandelver will be replaced by Black Pit and after that I think I can just use the published maps. My sticking point is how to get the party to go through the forest. There’s a road on the khorvaire map that goes around the woods that I’m afraid that they will say it’s longer but... there’s a road. I don’t want to railroad them but what how do I make them cut across the country instead of taking the road?

After reading through the module further I realize that was a pretty dumb question, think I have everything figured out
