No Raiders?

First time to the raider camp. Where are all the raiders. I only encountered Mia whom I promptly killed for being so evil. There is only a very small valley and no way to go anywhere else. Searched for secret doors along the entire valley.

I killed forrestall and the bears. Here is where I am stuck. I thought I found the camp, but it was just an old ripped tent with a boot on a pole. I have tried to climb further, but it always says not here. So, what now?

 

Here's what you need to know --

Spoiler

the raiders aren't in their camp. That would be too easy. I believe the main purpose for the raiders camp is to get people to used to using the rope to climb up and down cliffs. Yes, ropes are used earlier in the game, but not as much or in the same way. Anyhow, to continue with the quest take the boots on the pole back to the Bailiff. He has something interesting to say which may send you off to talk to someone else about it. This isn't necessary though. After speaking to the Bailiff, the raiders will at some point attack you as a random encounter o the world map. This can be a difficult encounter if your party is already beaten up or not well prepared.

 

Ok, thanks guys.

 

My party has the boots on a pole, but when they go to the Bailiff and he asks what progress has been made, whoever is speaking says no progress, and the Bailiff kicks them out.

What am I missing?

 

Both come out as zero

 

Nope, just found them by the tent.

 

The party went in using sneak.

 

I will try to go to the Raiders Camp again and go in without using sneak.

Are you suggesting I might meet someone/something if I go in without sneaking?

 

So I went back to the Raider Camp without sneaking, and afterwards I could talk to the Bailiff, and now have permission to talk to Billy.

 

The only thing I noticed when I went back, is that the Druid's Jackal companion growled when the party was approaching the tent through the broken building.
