How about hints in the dialogue about alternate ways to get in, and bluff/persuade options to get in without paying? Someone else also said that having the "Explore Mistlocke" quest in the journal could serve as a first free pass, which will be friendly to new characters.
What is this in relation to? Is it a FOIG thing? Otherwise I don't follow.
That toll is actually quite expensive considering that particular part is the part you want to cross through over and over, all the time. I suppose it's fine as long as it's not permanent, but it should be even less, like 2gp if it's going to be permanent, and with ways to enter for free.
MARKET GAP! Teleport service!
(There are ways to circumvent the toll, but those are FOIG).
Lets consolidate. Please see below link.
