I was perusing D&D Beyond's 'The Road To Baldur's Gate' series of free encounters (centering on traveling from Waterdeep to BG) and I've thought of an adventure hook just by looking at the included map.
'Some rich, enterprising, noble or merchant has decided to build a branch road off of Trade Way to finally directly connect Waterdeep and Neverwinter to Baulder's Gate, wrapping around the eastern edge of Trollbark Forrest and crossing The Fields of the Dead. Of course, something goes wrong and the noble/merchant has stopped receiving reports from the site. The Adventurers are sent in to figure out what's going on.'
