Just go to Trademeet first. Once you get there, the mayor will tell you about the animal attacks. He will also tell you about a druid being held prisoner there that may be able to help you investigate events at the Druid Grove. Then it will appear on your map.

As for the Mods, just do a Search for "mods" in this forum (make sure to search "entire message") and you will find several threads detailing the best order to install them in.

I would recommend installing ONLY the Weidu mods. These are the most popular ones and they are all self-installing. You just download the files into your SoA folder, then click on the icon after it downloads. You will get step-by-step instructions on what to do from there. It's very easy.

To the best of my knowledge, ALL Weidu mods are compatible with each. Opinions seem to vary, but I don't think it really matters what specific order you install them in. But I could be wrong. I can only think of two that DO need to be installed in a specific order - Ascension & Retribution. Both add to the game and Retribution continues from Ascension, so Ascension needs to be loaded first (to the best of my knowledge anyway). Most Weidu Mods, however, can be installed in any order without causing any problems. And Weidu Mods do not cause any problems with your game (with the exception of very rare bugs or glitches).
