I just got Keep on the Shadowfell and I am wondering how the transition from outside the kobold lair (A2) to the inside of the kobold lair (A3) works.
a.) Clearly the designers expect the party to enter through the waterfall entrance, but on the map it looks like there are three entrances. And on the picture (p.23) of the waterfall entrance there looks like there are stairs going up to the lair and a cliff wall. How many entrances are there? If there are three how does the map account for the cliff wall? If there is only one why does the map have three openings?
b.) Inside the kobold lair (A3) is supposed to be a separate encounter from outside the cliff lair (A2). Characters can even use stealth to surprise the kobolds inside the lair. How is this possible when a major battle happened just 5 or 6 squares away outside the lair and there is nothing to obscure sight and sound but a waterfall that produces only a tiny creek that doesn't even hamper movement?
