Just started exploring this place, a couple of fights in.
It honestly feels, compared to the other places I've been, that the party is oddly silent and it feels noticeable compared to the other areas.

It's a side dungeon, as the game opens up a lot of them will be complex game-play challenges with little story content.
It is noticeable in Episode 1 by contrast -- something for us to think about as we introduce these zones.

I understand it isn't part of the main story line, but as the only side encounter/area I've encountered so far in Part 1 (and the only area I think?) it does stand out in stark contrast. If that is acceptable in your design, then so be it I am I merely pointing it out. Hence.. bug or suggestion? I've little idea. >.<
If further on you intend a lot more of this side-quest areas, I would however suggest a touch more party interaction. Make it non-essential to the plot, but interesting non the less (such as trying to go into the actual farming caverns in Nordhall). It makes the world seem more alive, the party of adventurers actual living and breathing entities that just aren't avatars at your control, and offer opportunities for you to introduce lore.

Is this the staircase that wasn't working in 1.1.13...
Glad I replayed ep1 on hard... I missed this the first time through in my "normal" game.
Very cool level... hidden items too!
I do feel a little cheated at Tamara's tomb though... after all those bugs and I get an empty chest! (I know its partially random).

I thought it very interesting Karjtan made a point of mentioning Lava very close under their feet. Makes you wonder if at
some point, the party will enter a cavern with open lava pits, and what they might encounter there.

Just gone through this place after the 1.1.19 update and want to say love the little bits of extra dialogue. Love it. Well done.

I've upgraded to 1.1.19 just at the end of exploration of Warm Caves, so I saw new dialogs in reverse order on my way back to entrance  |

Yep, that kind of thing is unavoidable if you were "in" the caves when you downloaded your update. Thanks!
