The directions Vividos gives to find E's Hood are a mess - I personally
ran around the forest for hours, and then gave up, teleported to Mythran and
bought some from him. Soon after, I stumbled across tons of it, very near the
cemetary. This must have been the place Vividos was talking about, but it's
very nearly in the opposite direction from where your instructions take you.

Now, to the location. Exit the cemetary and follow the wall East (lower
right). Once you reach the shore, scout around. According to my memory, the
site is very near. It is a small patch of ground surrounded by a trench,
where there are usually at least a couple of changelings. Executioner's Hood
covers the patch and cannot be missed. And forget Vividos' instructions
completely, do not look closely beneath large trees, and do not try to find
EH 'between Tenebrae and the Cemetary'. I did.
