Amazing. I cannot facepalm enough upon seeing such questions where people ask for a simple exit strategy after commiting a sin and meet their logical conclusion.

You stole something. From druids. fre**ing druids!

Live with the consequences of your choices, at least play with them.

It's one book. Do you kill people for stealing 1 book without giving them a chance to give it back or explain themselves?
Ridiculous.

standard fare for larian games. in dos and dos2, i have on multiple occasions, using the controller, i go into at shop and go to click on the shopkeeper and then the "highlight cursor" suddenly shifts focus to some item they have laying out on the counter and i press A and my character grabs it and then instantly the entire city is out for my blood, literally every NPC in the entire settlement immediately goes hostile and converges on my position.

obviously, i'm gonna reload. the guy saying "don't reload!" you're supposed to live with the consequences of your actions!". . yeah, no. hardly nobody plays CRPGs that way, you're in the minority, my friend.

I did the same as a druid, I was in cat form and I wondered if I could pickpocket or steal stuff as a cat ( would be funny ), I jumped into that locked shack as Karlach, picklocked the door and let my cat in, went around looting stuff and that pissed off the tieflings. I killed them all fairly easily, its funny because the other tieflings like the smith don't notice. If you try to sneak out the goblin they turn hostile though.

one of cardinal rules of crpgs
save early, save often.
then save again
then save 2 more times for good measure
then save another time, just in case. . .
then save one more time, just because.

It is stupidly easy to aggro the druids. The grove is the quicksave tutorial realized.

F5 is your friend bruh

Save early and often, as if everyone you meet is a bloodthirsty moron with zero sense of self-preservation, because they usually are.

2 hours without thinking of saving the game. Even people that don't save scum often have multiple save points for various key moments. First thing I did after entering the grove is sell stuff, rest, then save. Everything from that point I do in the grove as a back up point.

If people start trying to bash you for "save scumming" it's an RPG. Just pretend that what you did was a vision, premonition or dream then revert to an earlier save. Add a little meta RP to the game.

Not quicksaving often in a game like this is a rookie mistake.

I'm at quicksave #1646. I'll probably be over 2000 by the time I finish the game.

If they are marked as "temporarily hostile" then you should be able to flee from combat and they then lose aggro.

Most of the time the agro isn't permanent.

You can escape the area and come back later.

Or knock out everyone instead.

They won't like it, but who cares.

Edit: You can often just accept jailtime too.

I don't know how you took this to mean, but when I read the word "accidentally" I tend to think the OP didn't actually mean to steal it.
