A nice and cheery reunion | Baldur's Gate 3 Epilogue

the nether brain fell you and shadowart have seen more of fyon than you ever thought possible she no longer shies from wolves or water nothing in the world frightens her anymore and you feel you could face anything by her side one day you receive a letter passed to you by a stranger who bows with Defence an invitation to a gathering of the friends and allies who stood by your side in the fight against the absolute you Wast no time in packing and set off on the long road back to where all of your adventures together began thou W called here some from above some below for With Thine bond together thou Hast kept the wheel of fate spinning when it threatened to Halt though thou W drawn far apart in the months after the collapse of the absolute tonight fate renews thy Bond once more thou shouldst take care to preserve it it is a great weapon wielded in the hand of good go know one another once more wonder if the gods are watching reunited with friends oh [ __ ] oh my gods he was wasn't kidding with is your mad bastard you brought us back Commander Zula won't know where the [ __ ] we went oh man I can't wait to say hi to everyone look at them the bees rest up Soldier my Tin Can will be all right for the night and you and me will get to sleep with both eyes shut for the first time in 6 months then again maybe won't sleep at all come here you [Music] goon she's got a night in her I think any trouble and I'll toddle back off to Hell quick as you please me too my love see you soon oh hey before you go I've been thinking about those blueprints we found zel's probably got a load of cambion guarding that Forge I'm sure she knows I'll want in she'll do anything to stop me from fixing this thing I might have an inn with one of the guards though you may remember my old friend Flo not sure she'll help us but maybe we might get to come home permanently maybe even sooner than than we think andity reic well now you can make yourself presentable when you have a mind too I'm glad the months have not been wasted particularly as I spent them cleaning up the mess we made of the city same twisting alleys for Pur Pickers same wooden buildings ready to get burnt by next year's Dragon same systemns overflowing [Music] huh an empty Throne thanks to you the city will not be long in burying it baloran simply get on on with it h stubbornness Civic Spirit blame stupidity perhaps all three but nothing I will sniff at any longer Harpers have come from half the world over to landaid Farmers Masons healers my own son George has been woed to their ranks already he plans crop Cycles in worms Crossing no so for my daughter Ryan's rejoined the Flaming fist temporarily you understand to organized the Craftsman though she spends more time locking up comrades for pocketing eight FS they might learn a thing or two if they don't expel her [Music] again ah there is still much to do people to house the Harper Network to [Music] rebuild I may have little love for this city but so long as my family chooses to serve it I can do no less for all your travels I hope you have arrived where you want to be home whatever that means to you garac is lucky to have you and know that you are not forgotten if your friends don't drag you from the hells it will only be because you freed yourself first but there will be more to discuss on that matter first I must inspect the refreshments you'll never know some n dwell might have tampered with the wine there you are I was hoping you'd make your way over there you are my friend breathe deep can you smell it you take a deep breath but you don't notice anything Beyond The Ordinary by the good Gods how bad do I reak oh [ __ ] DED devil's blood stinks like a skunk squatting in an abalith's corpse no wonder the three of us have failed enough cambian to build a fortress with their horns who would have thought that just one of those fiends held the key to escaping a verus for good if those blueprints work we might be able to fix carlac and she might be able to go home to fyon she's kept me on a Long Leash if you can believe it every Target she set me On's been a demonic Intruder tari assassins who slip into a verus amonites that amass near the sticks my next Target's the most challenging yet or so she says I don't know much more more only that it's no demon but a devil I'm not worried not when you both have my back I swear you two could scare the eyes off a Beholder I've seen him more than a few times and he's as proud of me as I am of him he's leading the city's renewal open the gates to all newcomers rebuilt the council from scratch and he's back in his element commanding the Flaming fist with brave heart and no shortage of empathy the likes of gash can bend people's minds with a few chosen words no tadpole needed Bane's chosen primed the fist for a war they weren't meant to win he convinced them there was an assassin hiding in every shadow that cruelty was the correct answer to crisis with a few exceptions fathers pardoned every last fist if my forgiveness not be tears will so be it I shall forgive them all the same his words not mine he still believes in the bow and the blade but with fic's help he's teaching the fist a new lesson Valor is found not in the wounds you inflict but in the lives that you have bettered may they all take it to heart well that's enough hell talk for the moment the nights you are you shouldn't go wasting it or wasting any of the wine for that matter I plan on Downing half a bottle myself did I say half a bottle I meant half a dozen ah it's the star of the show our humble protagonist who forsook Bal to save the city our skeletal friend will be very pleased to see I found my way here despite my invitation getting lost in the post oh I wouldn't bother you with such things during a party and anyway I've gotten quite good at replicating your signature so you needn't even bother with the release form you might help me with the title though I'm considering the hero and me what do you think I me it's all Volo as far as I'm concerned perhaps once the manuscript is finished you'd even be willing to write a forward or better yet I'll write a draft and you can just sign your name better still I'll sign it for you ah your success really has been wonderful for my reputation but you mustn't let me hog your attention all night my friend you've many friends to chat to and I'd love to listen in I can eat a Beholder what's cooking well well look what the Tres him Dragged In Professor Gail dararius of black staff Academy educator of the esteemed School of Illusion a pleasure to remake your acquaintance given that's something we have in common I'll be delighted to put in a good word for you with the academy your formerly murderous presence might even be enough to lighten the moods of my own students I fear my students find me somewhat intimidating due to my uh explosive former reputation I seem to put the fear of the Gods into them or the fear of mistra to be more specific I surrendered the crown of CES to her as I told you I would and and in return she cured me of the orb at last even now I struggle to put the feelings into words it was like exhaling for the first time after holding my breath for so very long of course I haven't clarified with my students that the orb is no longer a threat the legend of my explosive capabilities is an excellent means of controlling a classroom too good if anything I spend most of my time trying to convince them how much fun the study of magic can be but it' be easier to crack a smile on an intellect Devourer than some of my pupils illusory magic has the power to confound the senses to render The Impossible into reality and to allow expr expression of that most magical attribute of all imagination unfortunately in that respect some of my apprentices seem to be rather lazy oh they try their best of course when they can manage to stay awake the cheek of them nothing a well-placed swipe from Tara can't fix though and what of you what are you making of this new found lease of life we earned and I couldn't be happier for you A fitting reward for the sacrifices you made in getting here I've told my students plenty of tales about our escapades You're Something of a hero to them you know I'd be delighted to introduce you to my current cohort as a guest lecturer perhaps I'm sure they have plenty of questions for you excellent I knew you wouldn't be able to resist the Allure of sharing your expertise of course you'll be most welcome to stay with me in my tower my apologies Tara that would be our [Music] Tower it will give us plenty of time to catch up on your adventures I'm very curious to know what you've been up to these past months but I suspect the telling of that tale would keep you tied to me all evening so in the spirit of selflessness I encourage you to mix and Mingle for now time enough to come I have missed this place and these people so you made it now really is a party well look who decided to turn up I wasn't sure our withered old friend could live up to his promise but here we are and look at you straight from the hells still wreaking of Brimstone I take it you've been having [Music] fun yes the right person can make just about anything bearable and it seems like you found exactly the right person I've taken a turn as an adventurer and hero it turns out no one actually cares about murder as long as you murder the right people and apparently I'm rather good at [Music] it yes but you say all sorts of things honestly I don't even listen half the time it has made for a nice change though inspiring hope in people instead of Terror well I do try to inspire a little terror I'm still me after [Music] all I did at first but then I realized these Shadows this Darkness it's all a part of me I spent too long Define by what other people did to me the choices other people made for me but that's over now this is who I am in all my glory for better and For Worse that being said I haven't completely given up on returning to the sun if the opportunity presented itself well I wouldn't say no but until then I am happy we've had quite the journey you and I from the moment I first threatened you I knew you were someone special someone to Take On the World with I will miss our time together but then again maybe this isn't goodbye so much as it's um see you later darling my friend the hells Walker for two months sopus trained me in the ways of the Comet for two more I skewered krai bellies and for two more yet I traveled through limbo but to see your face it brings me even more pleasure than taking a inquisitor's head we've spilled blood gained a foothold in the Asal but still we need allies and one Beyond Reckoning has made itself known Zer is minari not a what but a who the immortal god king of the gieri an exiled people once kin with mine until The Madness of Civil War ripped our one sky into two our Gish sent word of the Rebellion to minara give through the cosmos he's agreed to Parlay it's Fallen to me to secure an alliance I was as surprised as anyone when orus spoke the order my blade is Keen as ever but it was you who showed me that a proper Victory doesn't always require a razor sharp edge sometimes a sincere plea is more persuasive than a dagger against the neck minara gith is an aesthetic he reached out in good Faith this is his way it is in this spirit that I must meet him and if he refuses I carry on gravity pulls me in but One Direction I am a warrior of the Comet I will not rest until I burn blackett's bones to Ash and smash her elater to Pieces my people will be free but you've heard that refrain before zealous bossy insistent or part and parcel of my undeniable charm soon when the comet has risen when the Lich Queen has crumbled to dust I missed this place more to the point I missed you I'll be back one day the over God himself couldn't keep me away we are not dreaming it is our old friend oh and it is good to be seen oh after so many days down in the dark Minsk began to wonder if he was some blind bug who had only dreamed himself to be large and bulm you will forgive the aroma I hope we were not expecting the dusty one to open a portal to our very cell boo had a moment to lick himself clean but there is a little too much of Minsk to cover Minsk and Buu have been helping of course we guard the streets while Jahira is occupied with Harish matters the entum rule the city's underbelly so minen boo to give them a tickle there were harsh words battlecries some manner of head wound we awoke in a ztish Cell awaiting trial by Noble combat execution says Buu though I am not sure of the difference it is a long walk to the Gallows and Minsk still has his fists no in ample time indeed so long as the bone Mage returns us to our cell by Dawn Bo would not be late to the Bloodshed but leave such matters for the mourn tonight is for celebration and the telling of tales how have you filled your days since we tore this sticky Tyrant from the sky aha the love bird still Nest together then Minsk is glad for what is life without a companion though I am thinking yours does not sit on your shoulders HH ah you all right Boo that is uh none of Minsk business there is much mert to be made before the night is done go and greet the others Minsk shall make himself presentable ah this Pond shall do nicely boo though I see no soap so you shall have to blow the bubbles for me good song Good Company and good wi from look very SI pleasure to see oh hello let me guess you've got some suggestions about the music choice I find it hard to summon up the trademark pep these days you have no idea who I am do you I thought Withers might have set the the stage a little I owe him a favor one he is eternally invoking I thought honoring the worthy was a fair price to pay for Withers to pull me out of the Fugue plane alas one Purgatory to [Music] another languishing in obscurity sirak knew what he was doing when he punished me for that song the prick before I was banished to the fug plane I had song prayers coming out the proverbial ears guess how many I get now none I'm washed up I'm afraid you you know you're bloody right it is an honor finally the Scribe picks an adventurer of substance of culture what can I do you for your wish is my Etc what song do you want fantastic idea it'll suit the whole Affair perfectly a beautiful night I wish it could last [Music] forever [Music] there's something strange in your old friend's mouth what is it you would think someone of my vintage would be inure to the passage of time yet these past 6 months have seemed endless without your company but now our paths cross once [Music] more just as I hope they would more like the oak father has been kind to me this past while yet I cannot forget the bond we all forg together it is one that can weather any distance any passage of time I know it can for I feel the longing for old friends in my heart each day well I am not normally given to imbibing but this is a special occasion and I believe our dear Withers procured a fine honey me as part of the celebratory victuals even the most aesthetic of nature servants would be tempted by such an Elixir but that can wait your company is what truly drew me now we have much to catch up on do not allow me to Ramble On I am eager to hear all you've been doing in that case very well our community grows rapidly in 6 months we have turned what was once a shadowy wasteland into a true home for all in another 6 months I would wager the scars of the past will be entirely invisible even to those who remember them the old masonry of moonrise towers and r wi have been repurposed into new homes and the land is Rich with harvests and bountiful trees nature and civilization are in harmony stronger together ah my greatest purpose and greatest reward those children children have been through more than fate had any right to cast at them and yet they go on as resilient as anything in nature I impart what knowledge I can to them yet in truth they teach me far more the land we saved is theirs and they will cherish it I'm sure thanel and Oliver she'll never want for friends [Music] again you are welcome whenever you like and for however long you please now please tell me all and spare no details I shall not lie I have an ulterior motive in wishing to hear all it is the children you see my charges their appetite for bedtime Tales is greater than I could ever have anticipated another story daddy hson another is the chorus that greets me each Nightfall they have all but exhausted my repertoire in but a few short months no mean fee to give the lifetime I have lived I desperately need new material please my reputation is at stake I am all ears though I never cared for that phrase a rather unsettling image I am glad you and carac have an enduring friendship it shall serve as a strong lesson for the children as well as a stirring tale now it would be cruel of me to hold you all to myself the evening as much as I would like to I shall leave you to the others for now unless there was anything [Music] else quite often they come and go as they please but with so many Playmates to Avail of they are far from strangers they ask after you often what you did for them will never be forgotten I can see it in the land all around me but more importantly I see it in their faces whenever they visit to make a child smile is to dabble with the power of gods as far as I'm concerned I spend half my days in IGN form the children demanded I had a score of them taking turns riding upon my back just days ago I'm glad they are so comfortable with the oak father's Creations but they must learn that not all are as amiable as I am uness them for another time though they deserve some joy as for roaming that impulse has dwindled I must admit perhaps because I have found where I am meant to be on occasion but I prefer not to interfere Franchesca of the high Forest is Arch Druid now and by all accounts she has proven to be a steady and wise influence even kga May yet find True Balance thanks to her influence uh before you go I have something for you just a little Keepsake really do you remember how I told you I like to whittle I made this ducks are my favorite but I thought they were particularly fitting in this case they are migratory birds of course traveling far and wide with the turn of the seasons yet they always find their way back to where they belong Just Like Old Friends find themselves back in each other's company oh I am well aware trust me now I've taken up enough of your time go on enjoy the festivities it truly is splendid to see everyone gathered together again if only for an as did I but somehow I feel like I no longer need to roam that I have found something worthy laying roots for amazing what can be discovered about oneself even at a ripe old age I was just thinking the very same your Embrace makes me feel safer than any armor could a familiar sight scratch can't quite speak around the thing he has in his mouth scratch yaps a request you know well fetch there you are starting to wonder if you'd show [Music] up he's quite powerful for a fellow content to loiter in our camp the whole time isn't he I wonder if he'll ever reveal what he's been up to exactly but no matter if withers's Wy ways are what it takes to have you here with us then I'm all for it oh come here will you it's been forever H you feel a little more substantial than before less camping and scaming off the land I take it filled out and healthy is what I was going for don't tell me you miss living off whatever scraps we found in crates and barrels I'm glad you seem well Trudy I had no doubt but I'm glad to hear you say it all the same wondering mostly the adventuring life is almost a tonic when you're not constantly threatened by brain monsters and cultists I can finally see the world beyond the Closter peace and quiet will still be there waiting once I've lived a little don't don't get me wrong I've got a little cottage with a garden and animals in mind already one of my first stops was the house of the Moon in Water Deep it's the largest temple of saluna in existence it seemed like the perfect spot to reflect on my parents on where they came from and where I came from too I suppose hard to imagine isn't it me of all people in the lair of the Moon witch herself Gods you're true ruest Act of heroism was putting up with all that Char and driil I was spouting for so long oh I know they are I can still sense them I think and one day we'll be reunited well I've had run-ins with my former Fellowship shens on a couple of occasions word seems to have spread of what happened at the cloer now other chapters of sha worshipers see me as a prime target to offer up to their lady as a sacrifice don't worry I know their tired old tricks better than anyone they'll need more than a hooded cloak and poison blade to best me especially when I have a friend on the inside keeping me a breast of their predictable little plans n another the matter of her faith and allegiances remains complicated let's say but she is still my oldest friend I have hopes that perhaps she might turn from Sha entirely given time but that's a decision she will have to make for herself if that day comes I'll be [Music] ready I don't know which is just the way I like it just now perhaps I'll just stick a pin in a map and see what I find or head to the docks in the morning and scr a birth to find somewhere new I'd like to see the islands maybe or or head south to AR Mom I heard there's an enclave of were cats that hunt the followers of dark Gods By Moonlight I'd love to see if there's any truth to that but enough about me what have you been up [Music] to I'm glad you two have each other Hells I'd be almost tempted to come along if you'd have me perhaps if your adventures ever lead you out of a verice permanently hopefully these meetups will become a regular occurrence it's not that I miss the tadpoles but at least it brought us together now we've got to make the extra effort [Music] ourselves I'm sure we will but let's be proactive about it all the same we're more than capable after all we've faced down bigger threats than rangling together a few social [Music] calendars don't be a stranger shouldn't have wished to live in more interesting times I didn't expect to be nervous but seeing everyone here like this it's strange isn't it I feel like I must have dreamed the last few months now I'm waking up back in Camp with my hair smelling like wood smoke and fallen leaves stuck to my backside oh I've noticed ever since I first slipped into my Camp garments I should think so we should divvy up what we tell people about what we've been doing these past few months I'd hate to be a boar that comes along and regurgitates the same story to someone moments after you've told them any ideas well there's the visit to the house of the Moon fending off sh and assassins that stray imp that joined us Bing Bong wasn't it we've squeezed in a lot and I'm glad I got to share it all with you I'm sure we'll have them hanging off our every word I'll leave you to do some mingling unless you need anything else that can be arranged almost a shame we're with company I'd be tempted to let you whisk me away someplace quiet why are you expecting to be gone for long all right I could get lost in those arms with music in the air and wine flowing I think I'll manage don't get into trouble but if you must fetch me first no time to rest have to keep going the cheers to you cheers to Withers cheers to all of us [Music] this one night is like any other and yet different Thou Art the savior of Boulder's Gate until such time it requires saving again how does that [Music] feel I am pleased to hear it the satisfaction of one's intention is to my surprise a rare accomplishment enjoy the rry of the day thou what indeed prick up thy ears and [Music] listen the balance of the world restored the balance of these lives mortal and otherwise brought to account hear me th Heroes wols friend I have waited long to tell you these words it is over for now thou played thy part in weaving the fabric of Fate itself but for every thread you sowed so did the gods unravel another sleep rest Revel but be ready for thou May yet be needed until we meet again I wish thee every possible Fortune health wealth love and above all problems worth solving to [Music] [Music] you
