Baldur's Gate 3 - Let's Play Part 18: Outer City Dilemma

welcome back adventurers to episode 18. as we continue our adventure through the Rivington District in the outer city of Baldur's Gate so last session we started to solve the Open Hand Temple murders Quest and I ended up finding a flowery key that was in possession a doppelganger assassin but I'm not exactly sure what it opens up yet I did search around I couldn't find anything in this immediate area so we're going to hang on to that and other than that we're trying to get gortash's netherstone and orange netherstone as we already killed Kathryn thorme and took his netherstone and the nether stones are what is controlling the absolute or the Elder brain you'll notice here that our main quest is either control the Elder brain we could dominate it and have a thousand Kingdoms at our Command or destroy the Elder brain which the quest description says that may be the smartest thing to do let's push on I gotta find a Trader here a merchant here shortly and sell a few things let's go ahead and check out this side of the Rivington District it's probably like a thousand quests in this area it's huge turn back citizen no passage in this direction why not it's bloodier than a butcher's backyard out there piles of dead absolutists and a few of our own as well the cultists assaulted the gate onto the teeth trying to break in they nearly had it too before the steel watch intervened steel watch is that some sort of fancy new rank of City Watchmen wow look at that that is bloody let's go this way I'm gonna have to put some dye on my Cape here not sure if that really fits my image right now no way okay what a sight for sore eyes I believe there's somewhere you're supposed to be no long overdue in fact do I know you no but I know you I was told to keep watch for you and point you towards home should you ever appear and lo you have appeared spit it out then where is she supposed to go your friend is inquisitive the dangerous trait are you sure you want him listening in on this yes I trust him whatever you have to say say it very well first you need to continue onwards into the lower City seek out a place called the house of grief it may not be quite what you expect but I assure you it's the right spot go there make yourself known you'll be given the welcome you deserve can't you show me yourself oh no I must remain here in truth I'm glad to keep my distance for now there's been some tension in the ranks seems a great deal is riding on the outcome of your mission besides I have business to attend to where's to sell our great Endeavor can't run on faith alone we need phones have a look if you wish otherwise I think we're done try not to dawdle too much in the city mother's waiting the house agree for companionship I hear they can cater to almost every taste in charesses caress I am not an offer unfortunately all right so the only thing I bought from him I sold a bunch of stuff was a nymph cloak you get dominate person a level five enchantment spell make a humanoid fight alongside you 'll give that a try sometime check out this building you turn around and toddle your way right back out of here everything in this Barn has been donated for the refugees not you now piss off is this really going to help the refugees look around you these poor sods need all the help they can get now are you gonna clear off or not why does a baron need the Flaming fist to protect it case little weasels like you come sniffing around bro bro why do you care about the refugees so much and you don't after all they've been through and with the off you can't see it I'm not gonna waste my time explaining it to you he actually seems like a pretty nice guy talk to him again back again if you don't have anything to donate you can get going let's see what happens maybe oh look at this donate 500 gold sir sure let's do it thank you I'm sure your contribution will be greatly appreciated you seem pretty honest and genuine once we go back to Camp I also have to talk to Lazelle to is everything that just happened with Orpheus Lazelle is going to have something to say about that we discovered that an ancient get Yankee Prince called Orpheus was being held prisoner inside the artifact we should talk to lizelle stand her my sister-in-law Allah no sister hmm I see a half orc let's have a chat I'm even talking is painful right now let me take a look at that wound seriously you know what I'm using an Inspiration Point after a quick examination you conclude that your patient is pretending to be wounded wonder why really this isn't necessary that need your help more urgently this is barely a scratch what's the idea they're not ready for that frankly I'd miss him I don't really have any other friends and I like those lads so I think I'll stick around a while more crunching at the city travel we hit him in a big a nailed it shot okay all right let's head up the east side oh my gosh we can get down here too how big is this game this is insane a lot of dead chickens around here scavenge whatever you can from this mess back off I found these apples first [Music] thank you didn't realize there was an extract all ingredients right there that's cool now we have a ton of elixirs that we can craft Arcane cultivation is really good once you get spell slots back we'll make a couple of those perfect [Music] what do we got here recognize the word was rare the girl Monster Hunters are as formidable as they are secretive welcome friend you find us on a solemn day I pledge your dead my respects your Quarry must have been impressive I see you studied our tongue friend you're quite correct we underestimated an enemy Fray I'll discuss Frey Valdez our tribe left camp on a rescue mission only Alma and those you see here returned what killed them The Wretched I'm dead [Music] I will say no more it's not my tale to tell no that shame is mine alone we would not normally tolerate Outsiders at a time like this forgive me I'm Wolf the Slayer of catheric Thorne well these are strange times indeed and what's catharic to you the head of the Shadow cursed warlord is an impressive trophy I am wondering if I could tempt you with another I'm already hunting another monster a noble goal I will not ask you to deviate from it but know that this city holds other dangers too in the city lives Cazador a powerful man a respected man a man known to host lavish hedonistic Banquets in his Palace but behind the facade there is a monster a vampire who was made Baldur's Gate a feeding ground and his Palace and abattoir for years his foul spawn have stolen away innocence at night whisking them back to his Palace recently they struck our camp they took our children every last one our whole future we suspect he holds his victim somewhere below his mansion and we fear our missing children are among them we tried to save them and paid a heavy price but perhaps the Slayer of Catherine could succeed where we failed slay the vampire claim his head and free our children please wow a mission the sleigh Cazador czar starion's previous Master the Starion is one of his vampire spawns I'll see what can be done if you do this our entire tribe will be in your debt on our honor it will be repaid May the gods keep you and damn your enemies you're a story on has something to say about that wow look at this absolutely beautiful look those ships are probably supposed to be moving aren't they maybe not that might be glitched out a little bit they're moving earlier it might just be floating and there's worms crossing bridge where we are going to be heading here shortly the checkout is that a Tavern right there ferris's caress I don't think I have any dye in my inventory otherwise I would die his cloak right now [Music] thank you I feel like there's just so much to explore and do oh man there's the older brain wow Walk Through This Grass that looks fun okay let's go back down into the street I think I will do that mission to slay Cazador Zara that sounds like a lot of fun little vampire mission I wonder if I'm allowed to pick up this cat looks like I can I need I need some camp supplies nice bunch of cabbage sitting around in the streets blood around it look at these guys right here all of the refugees like their outfits okay and that brings us back to the start so let's come up here check out what's going on over here all the characters that are talking to each other I think have dialogue lines when you're in the city so let's see what's going on here and then we're gonna head towards the bridge away from my family [Music] you paid me and my boys to be Caravan guards not cattle Wranglers if you want us to get our hands dirty it'd be our pleasure but that'll be extra he sounds like she works for the guild there's no one we meet ever get along people's property I just want to remove these unlawful Interlopers from my property the tech thoughts delve into this frustrated man's mind see what he truly wants let them stay here basement the basement hmm I hear these sort of houses always have basements what do you use yours for my basement nothing interesting just materials I'm a Craftsman you see this man is definitely lying and he's really hoping you don't pry any further look I have some very valuable components in there I need to get that lot out before they damage something you mind if I take a look Liberty do something about it you paid us to protect you and your high quality merchandise on the road and we've since arrived at our destination as I said anything else is extra this is the last time I hire someone from The Guild where's the Guild here's the extra finish the job oh we might be getting into combat now yep okay the bad start with the guild I don't have my animal companion now because we got counter spell here what's he casting Spike growth um sure we'll counter spell it foreign no resistances level eight human dimples Baxter it's a hell of a name right there all right let's see let's do I say we do could take advantage of some of our gear spells that we have here player Shield chill beckoning Darkness cursor creature to be haunted by Darkness it takes 2 to 16 necrotic damage if it enters or starts its turn in a lightly or heavily obscured area we are in a lightly obscured area right here I wonder if this would I think I think oh damn I didn't notice that Shield blow when struck by melee attacker attacker must succeed and dexterity saving through a fall throne nice that was pretty sweet yeah I think this is also gonna hit friendlies too so I should probably not use that I'll have to test that out sometime let's go ahead and start off with the spirit Guardians we're gonna do necrotic [Music] nice nice nice I think I'm good with that ninja hero we're gonna have you call lightning awesome then we're gonna wild shape into let's wild shape into look I always want to do the owl bear this wild shape into the wolf Shadow heart's gonna be really scared now we have been citing howl gather your pack giving everybody a 10 foot increase to their movement speed or exposing bites okay are you serious I didn't see that dimples Baxter is a bard all right let's back Gail up a little bit let's start off with a I was playing an evocation wizard I could do this in every fight it would be so powerful but I'm not I'm playing a necromancy wizard I don't want to have Undead while I'm in the city right now because everybody's going to be running from them let's start off with let's do haste on Wolf go back into this little corner we'd probably get high ground act oh yeah look at that thank you all right wolf let's see what you got my man I'll start off with the one that's going to be easier to kill [Music] executioner once per long rest your next attack roll will be a critical hit paralyzing critical once for long rest when scoring a critical hit you can paralyze the target for two turns excellent synergy hello Thorns let that go not too worried about it or gets too far there we go oh nice damn Jahira that's awesome foreign strike Nightshade poison probably gonna conserve a few spell slots right now all right Mr Gale what do you got for us my friends guys got eight HP so let's go ahead and do a magic Missile level two and we'll do actually we're gonna do level one may or may not kill that guy so close it's so far away I wonder if this is worth the cost like my character is frightened right now is unfortunate disadvantage yeah it worked anyways oh nice I'm not frightened anymore waste a step that's gonna be annoying nice so many animal forms to try out okay we're okay looks like our first fight against the guild we are 1-0 even though we did help them back on the beach hope the entire guild is not after me now has proven to be a pain in the ass I gotta be so dramatic okay let's go talk to Ben over here he seemed like a decent guy we're definitely gonna be checking out this basement oh man look see they're running from uh this is the worst bug you can have in the game like any wild shaped form or animal companion just scares everyone away I don't even know where they went okay Ben's coming back where did the other guy go lethargic see those animals are out of the picture can we stay night or are you going to turn this next they can definitely stay now after that guy set the Guild on me oh look we can give him some money to stay at the end yeah I think I'll do that you're much better off at an end than waiting to get chased out of here I don't want to take charity from some stranger but I will for the sake of my daughter thank you we'll get going as soon as we've got our things together I respect that guy now let's go check out the basement our first mansion [Music] we have a latch around here do we have a huh we got some fish in here I'll take that fish fillet absolutely maybe there's a latch on the outside of the building an entrance right here everybody's failing perception checks let me go ahead and give shadow give off guidance real fast tujahira [Music] before she enters the room what's that and there we go oh welcome rest question is how do we get in here I wonder if somebody has a key on them or we could do this yeah what are you doing up there get your ass down here buddy They're Gonna Hurt yeah that's gonna hurt um oh we're gonna both with looks like gal is going to take some damage nine HP all right we'll jump over yeah it's easy to get up with Misty step never thought about getting back down though I think we're gonna use the knock spell could try one lock pick with Shadow though to conserve my spell slots in case there's some monsters down here whatever comes I'm ready you got this shadow 18 DC wow got a good start see how many lock picks I have okay looks like we're doing foreign start using Aid through a level three step carefully there's a trap everybody back up we found the house of grief your fellow Sharons are within it somewhere what now decree she is no longer fit to lead there will be plenty of others there too if we can get them to see sense I would rather we spare their lives I don't want to lead a Congregation of corpses like Balthazar and cathric yeah some white Noble intentions kind of all right y'all I need you guys to back up because I'm going to take a shot at this trap wow fireworks rigged fireworks rigged fireworks everywhere rigged fireworks all right everybody back up again we're gonna take a shot yeah that took care of that one we're gonna send one person up on their own we're gonna do Shadow heart with resistance let's get on with it it looks like a trap there this room is crazy trap wow the stuffed bears a trap too let's divide that trap oh nice okay we just gotta pull yeah over here nasty surprise I kind of like the traps in this room blackmail letter package still waiting for you at fellow gears so fellow gears is actually a firework shop in the city of Baldur's Gate better not be late again or we'll start to wonder if you're really as committed as you claim to be pick it up put it in the teddy bears make the donation it couldn't be simpler really it's still here this time tomorrow we'll stuff you with it as you well know we've plenty to spare we found a blackmail letter in the toy maker cellar something dangerous has been placed inside the toys donated to the refugees we should find them and quickly let's go check out that Barn where we met that nice flaming fist Soldier as he said that everybody was donating to that Barn so if we can find something more so that's progress it's better than nothing [Music] talk to our buddy man up again before we could sneak in the back go something else to donate have ya persuasion I need to get into the barn right now something dangerous might be among the donations foreign are you serious right now oh my gosh oh there we go I'm gonna let you through because I don't want to take any risks bear not be lying struggles of a low Charisma adventuring party probably use Gale or Jahira because they do have plus one more than I do I kind of like talking with my main character it's okay if we fail it's fun all right so we let us in destinations we're going to check it out what all these Goods have already been checked in I didn't ask for your opinion fist fall in and do your job and where do we go man up anywhere they're checking crates I guess these are all donations it appears onions uh you know and I need camp supplies I can't I can't steal from the refugees though you know what I'm saying I donated clothes purple grapes you'd think the toy donations would be more obvious so it's got to be somewhere over here we persuaded man of Nestor to let us search the donations within the requisitioned bar okay this looks like a toy place donations chest right here oh my God you were right explosives Now give me some room I need to make sure the rest of these donations are safe yeah I'll let you do that my man I'm out of here you try and find whoever is responsible for this okay we're lucky to be alive we found the donated toys mentioned in the blackmail against Arthur put explosives inside of them we should see what he has to say for himself okay if we can find Arthur hopefully he's back at his house interesting little side quest here there he is the man who set The Guild on us look I really don't have time to chat I'm sure you can find someone this busy to listen to somewhere I found the toys you donated care to explain before everything blows up in your face those would help you to forget keep your gold I want answers Arthur I'm just a simple toy maker and design I don't know anything they would have killed me if I refused to rig the toys they're definitely going to kill me now it's pretty low of Arthur they who is they I can't tell you I won't tell you I don't like this guy yeah let's do an intimidation check here tell me who they are or you'll be dead before they even get to you 15 what guidance I only have one Inspiration Point left you know what why not right let's roll with it we'll get some more soon I think there we go all right hey the teddy bears what an experiment my greatest invention clever little device in their chest allows them to speak but there's more smoke powder inside the device I collect packages from falogous fireworks in the lower City and stuff the Bears with it not because I want to because I have to otherwise to me they'd rather kill children than risk your own skin it sounds terrible when you put it like that but maybe you can put a stop to this whole operation I I don't know who's in charge but it starts at the fireworks shop that's where the packages come from go there tell them Uncle for Logan essential and they'll show you the smoke powder lots of it hmm spell father I told you what you wanted to know now will you let me go his plea comes with an offering a pass granting you access to the lower City true hmm and get right into the lower City and continue our quest to find the nether stones I'm sure there's probably another way is this man going to continue to harm more people probably the only place you're going are for is prison you can't be serious they they find me Phil would keep me safe they've run this city at least in prison there'll be walls to break through before anyone can get to you what he did is pretty messed up holy crap all right all right I'll go but if I'm found hanging in my cell it'll be on your conscience like I care oh we're just gonna trust him to run to prison that's too funny oh cool look we got um nice we got the admission pass still awesome this pass grants access for Bearer and Entourage to worms Rock audience Hall the ceremony of Lord gortash's elevation the Archduke of balder's gate wow time to pay worms Rock a visit wow this reminds me of Baldur's Gate one with sarahvak in his coordinate that's that's pretty cool I love larion to do that okay let's head towards worms Rock go back up this way what if we can get in here this is the carnival hold on I think we're gonna have to try to get into the carnival how could we how could we not do that you know what I mean just keep your hands to yourself you're being watched okay precisely I've heard the Ginny is something else this circus better be worth the hassle circus poster how do we get into the circus my friends [Music] oh this is one way family oh this is gonna be too good this is gonna be too good we have oh man I don't have any short rests right now dribble's a show this must be dribbles the clown master of puns and punch lines with bitey Buddy okay let's check out the show [Applause] Buddy the dog is my very best friend do you know why why because with him anything is possible way to my taste but I'll take a clown over some hack magician pulling peonies from his breeches did you hear about the Scarecrow who lost a fight oh get off the stage [Music] we've got ourselves a Debbie down I'm Like A Hackler thank you to the loud mouth for volunteering for my next trick now where oh where uh you uh hair on the back of your neck raises as a shiver passes through you you my Special Assistant come on up I think my friend's Shadow heart will make a far better assistant are you quite sure you have a friend called Shadow heart not an enemy oh my heart the enthusiasm is up up double shop oh poor buddy will think you don't like him [Music] right there oh perfect go on Shadow heart I'd advise you find someone to taste your food from now on I just got disapproval but she's still listening that's funny [Applause] [Music] you're very special as special as can be does anyone know why you're special my friend because I have a message just for you praise the absolute what ER that's a dinosaur it was a very nice clown here comes that punchline yeah we're fighting uh we're fighting dinosaurs back breaker on Gale let's start off strong we're gonna Shield this damn it's a freaking clown with a hammer he's part of the show okay what do we got here praise the absolute I can't believe it it's a freaking displacer Beast again that's amazing Shadow whiskers and then crimson funny how they have names because they're in the circus damn that thing looks crazy 51 HP okay well let's focus on I think we're gonna focus on the clown first let's start off with oh wow this guy must be Undead or something [Music] can't use whole person [Music] dominate person yeah none of those work see if we can dominate this guy that would actually be nice I think it must be humanoid what do you mean this guy is definitely humanoid doppelgangers holy crap okay okay only thing I think about Moonbeam is I can't move it when I'm in Wild shape form probably actually not the spell that I should be casting it's good to cast a concentration spell before you wild shape but ones that you have to move like Moonbeam it's tough because you can't move it but I already did it so let's go wild let's go owl bear this guy right here I wonder if what he's doing I think he's helping us [Music] oh man this Placer Beast is getting out of control hey nice we have a bug bear on our side all right Shadow let me have you let's start off with Spirit Guardians you know what I should do let's see if I have a potion of speed man I don't you have the haste spell though so let's take Gail let's do haste and Shadow I think it's gonna be worth it it's gonna be worth it except I don't have um you have haste prepared there it is I had the wrong character selected for some reason it's not letting me do gal's turn even though we are in consecutive order right now in the order of turns that heart's only got 11 HP too really use haste not letting me switch turns though okay well let's do mirror image I'm about to die and then we're gonna drink a potion and just hold our grounds I don't know why that didn't let me do that okay we got to get Gail out of here if we can get some high ground oh look at that I wonder if that's where I want to go yeah let's go up there if it doesn't require me to take an opportunity attack looks like it might it's got to be an opportunity attack and man it might actually seriously be worth it because once I have him up there he's going to be fine all right we're gonna do it 11 damage not bad okay perfect we'll back up oh damn that was a lot of damage okay wanted the clown dead first so stick with that plan foreign 30 HP kill all the people watching this is the animal tamer man that's a lot of damage there's a lot of damage okay the clown is dead perfect they also have our crushing flight and this could be really good yeah man [Music] every is that hold on what is that attack I don't I'm not familiar with what's happening right now permanently armed creature can't be disarmed corrosive spit affected entities armor-classmen reduced by one the spit will keep eating away at his defenses next attack against this creature would be a critical hit [Music] I think we probably want to take out the displacer Beast next otherwise it's going to keep making copies of itself [Music] okay so here's where we gotta start taking advantage of spirit Guardians let's jump right here touch the displacer Beast probably touch the Raptor too not worried about the second form oh damn I'm getting an opportunity attack and I think I jumped that close to the displacer beast's reach must be pretty far you know what I do have mirror images out right now hmm okay we'll hold our ground [Music] come on man that was a level four spell slot right there perfect awesome awesome awesome damn it foreign here is almost dead [Applause] [Music] yeah I jumped a little bit too close over the spacer base was Shadow heart making it quite difficult here I could disengage I think it actually might be worth disengaging and just running over here because I can probably kill that doppelganger and start working on these two creatures so let's do that awesome perfect now we're in a great position and I have an action left too so let's go ahead and see if we can get a guiding bolts guiding bolt level 4 88 percent okay I'll take it fix HP left on the display service so let's do magic Missile do one two and then we'll put the other one on go after the dog have to keep going one target at a time and there we go [Music] question is how the heck do I get down with Gail what we're gonna have to take a long rest here in a second wow look at this building this is the uh oh this is the Open Hand Temple that we're in earlier beautiful like a haystack around here I can jump on or something that looks like it's locked back here we probably want to jump on this side maybe I can jump to the cart [Music] lucretius the bringer of the night okay well let's uh let's do some looting and then take a long rest because our trip to the circus so far is turning out to be quite interesting thumb we see it in you The Thirst the art the passion the trail of cold bloody murder you have left in your track needs only the finishing touches that Grant you a place among his favorite but he requires something truly magnificent a circus has appeared boasting a collection of Misfits and ragtags but more importantly a stage now comes the performance of your lifetime and when the curtain Falls tribunal will be watching yeah this guy helped us out right here I like him you fight good doppelganger not so good nice a beast cage key okay not everyone subscribes to what is mine is yours oh my bad brother he doesn't want me to look flimsy sausage oh I clicked on another one sorry brother I won't click on the red Corpses or in toys with us where she could destroy us whatever her motivation and this will be a nice natural stopping point for part one of episode what are we on right now we're on episode 18. we'll continue back here in a few moments welcome back let's have a chat with our companions here I want to talk to Lazelle first about what happened in the previous episode when we were introduced to the Emperor who was the guardian we thought was that beautiful woman but turned out to be a mind flare but we'll have a chat with Lazelle first wherever the heck she is and then we'll do our rounds to see if anybody else has anything to say and then we'll head back to the surface or head back to the circus [Music] because Lazelle this one I just saw her a second ago will a Starion Shadow Gail you at liezel there she is laughs Oren scraw burn away the Shadows she hides I tear off her mask and you'd reveal reveal her for what she is shivering forget the inky Prince was bound inside the artifact this entire time I could hardly believe it no parasite communes with lazels her heart racists as she learns of the events inside the astral prison Orpheus guess only son he lives it is not the case visitor that vlackath would destroy and Voss would set free it is it is Orpheus blood of the mother the prince of the comet the blood of the mother who is he exactly listen close the empress long ago when he rose up against our gay slavers mother gifts made for the hells to secure an alliance with the archdevil Tiamat gifted the gift Yankee are Red Dragons gith remained in the hells and tiamat's Envoy proclaimed vlakid our ruler the first blackhead of many it is Ruckus 157 whom my people now call Queen 157 that's a lot of lackets yes yes our current Queen has claimed undeath and reigned for a thousand years Orpheus was is yes only son he led his mother's own honor guard in a coup against blacketh one it was kithrak Vos himself who slayed the prince in vicious battle also the various teach us yet the prince of the comet's been with us subdued by that repugnant to live it should Orpheus Go free he would tear vlakis Empire to pieces and build New Glory from the scrap thank you Ben Voss was right Orpheus is the seed of lacketh's demise the seed every word for spoke he spoke true Orpheus is the living proof of the Queen's lies and the living weapon that conquered our cake slavers one word from his lips and the people would doubt two words and they would rage three words and they would bow to the true air if it give young kids be free the prince of the Comet must lead the way what about him why did blacketh keep Orpheus alive all those Millennia ago the emperor may be loathsome but it's right Orpheus can disrupt a gay hive mind a talent like that makes the prince a powerful shield and a powerful weapon why destroy a weapon like that when you can contain it in a relic and keep it for your s why would blacketh want Orpheus dead now if he's so valuable alive a weapon is only an asset for as long as it isn't pointed at you the means of black its own end has been ripped away from her better to have Orpheus killed than to risk his Escape better to risk the rise of a lithids than let the prince of the Comet deny her the godhood she craves hmm [Music] who are the Hostile githyanki in the prison orpheus's Honor Guard loyal to the end trapped by Flagler in the same prism holding their Noble Prince fruitlessly hacking at the sphere that contains him CSS es guitar pulled husks in the empress thrall but I pledge to live as they perished in the service of gifts son and why is he called the prince of the Comet the history and enthralled by the gate so mad with power he'd smashed through the GIF Yankee Empire and deliver the shards to his illithic Masters and glowing with such psionic force that he and his red dragon blazed a trail through the skies a lethal Comet careening towards my people of course vlakid spread a false image of Orpheus as monstrous betrayer and her Knights as The Butchers who sliced him through she was right to fear him I'll Grant her that so great is the comet it could shatter her reign really interesting because this is Forgotten Realms lore that we didn't know and it seems like larian has been given permission to continue on with the Geth Yankee story and the Orpheus character Lazelle is eager to speak to kitrak Vos at sharis's caress he knows someone who can help free Orpheus from his prison great evils been mocked by villains of All Sorts but Orin she is beyond even Thorne her mind is Twisted beyond recognition is she capable of and where will she strike next would it be true Duke stelmine allied with the emperor mind flayers are like Devils they just sport tentacles rather than Wings clever manipulative exploitative the emperor says he's a friend I think we'd be fools to believe him and maybe it's true maybe stelmane allied with a mind flare and subjected the city to their political will or maybe he made an offer she couldn't refuse did you know stelmane very well back in the day I met her twice the first time I was a boy of seven or eight at a banquet in the Flaming fist's honor one look and I was smitten chestnut hair that flowed behind her like Willow fronds as she floated from one room to the next as if carried by clouds the second time Stillman was different even with the aid of a Cane each step she took was a struggle every word she spoke to Great physical effort a stroke victim I asked father nature no he said a stroke survivor he sense uncertainty in Will's voice he questions his father's explanation [Music] I sense there's something more to the story will something's always gnawed at me at the banquet stelman didn't seem to look at us but through us but that second time her gaze never left me it was steel Sharp and unyielding it could just be my imagination but I always felt that it was more than a stroke that had changed her what though I couldn't say [Music] I'm short on sympathy she has partners of the Mind flare the emperor Nola actually let's say gone before a time it sounds like what a tragedy not a tragedy I calculated cruelty think about it my father was tadpole stelmane is dead the people are frightened and the councils in disarray to exert control you must first sow chaos a tyrant strategy as father would say these murders aren't Random Acts someone powerful is guiding the Killer's hand and the city is made weaker for it very similar to sarahvak who wanted to sew chaos between Baldur's Gate and arm infiltrated by a shape changer I can't even tell if any of you acting strange because you've been replaced or because this group is full of weirdos okay [Music] we'll have to probably take a story on when we go to Cazadores the state the bell's chosen is a double [Music] they have ever been among his favorite servants oh it's testing you yourself a predator playing with her food oh she fears feels good she wants us paranoid likely to make a mistake exactly ate his rise to power adoring is more Predator than politician I think she simply wants to make us feel haunted isolated tell the Lord Ling that Oren is watching seems that gortash and Oren have had a little falling out we should leverage that true are you faring without your Harpers you think me lonely in truth I prefer travel in a small pack such as this unburdened by numbers we're free to act rather than react a little like the old days with allies every bit as peculiar give or take a few tadpoles then ask and back to the circus here we go let's go talk with lucretius the bringer of the night oh dear screaming children and oozing corpse and it's not even my birthday lucretius ring Master

Shadow heart ever since shadowheart killed the Night song I feel like I can pick on her now you didn't listen to me let's see what we got here face painting kit send to Shadow heart see what this does clown face paint maybe I can turn her in and act like she's dribbles okay it's very cool let's go ahead and dye my character's entire Arma set right now I would like some better boots before I do that but it is what it is let's go combine here we go start with a cloak not even gonna look until it's done I didn't really do much for the for the armor foreign I've had them for a long time that's a red cap walking by okay now we kind of look um okay I don't think that's the look I was going for but now we look like we're a worshiper of char alongside Shadow heart oh we got a Bard over here [Music] later not now [Music] oh that's nice I like how it's a red Dragonborn he's the janitor okay oh zaffino this is interesting syrup's here my home my refuge in this city of stone and steal your eyes dearer there is pain endless and deep but also devotion blazing like the sun you're in love are you not uh you know it's interesting because I feel like my character has grown quite close to Shadow heart but everything that just happened you know has created some complications in my character's mind let's go ahead and tell her that I do love someone someone close to me actually you are wise to admit it when it comes to love vulnerability is armor truth a sword and Trust a shield I pray you wield all three star brings the one you love to me I will look into your hearts and see if your love is eternal or doomed eternally I think I'm in love with Athena now okay let's do this what do you say shadow heart love is it I didn't realize I'd bowed you over that much give it a try then impress me with the face paint close your eyes little ones be still a stone to Earth and remember remember breathe heck is going on right now I see you I see the bond between you so tender so fragile but do you see it for yourselves Shadow heart and endless Storm surges behind sharp I think from where does Shadow heart draw Comfort on a cold dark night oh no am I getting quizzed right now judging others a blanket I see damn that's a bad start all affections face their trials Urban Quivers but it does not yet break the heart craves Comfort but needs respect how does one earn the dark-haired maidens respect cattle's not too happy right now farting on a saloonite I almost have to choose that right now oh man I I think I have to do it I'm doing it I would never oh damn it there's hollowness between something brittle and strained we must dig deeper grasp the pain hiding within shame sits in the soul of all to tame us we must name it Shadow heart what is her deepest shame okay let's get serious now she doesn't know who she is or where she belongs didn't think suppose I should be grateful you helped me shed any illusions that you might have been paying attention thank you my character's like oh and I know why because your heart belongs to another cause your eyes and she will show herself to oh my God still rolling in the muck I see gothash knows you are coming knows you have the bone Lord Stone do not let him hiss hot air into your worm or Wicked stretch following in your worm wake won't help you your bond is brittle the kind the Tyrant longs to break remember calves truth you will read it on your skin soon enough she's toying with me what does she want well that was interesting wasn't too good for shadow heart by a relationship it is what it is you know gonna method over there bony and a cobbled upper clown man is is dead wanted trito let me see what you have yeah yeah for you I love this little guy dark displacement gloves you gain a plus one bonus to attack rolls when throwing you may swap positions with a Target that's pretty cool Arrow of transposition teleport wherever you fire this Arrow that's pretty cool let's pick that up might pick up the potion of flying too you never know you're gonna need it okay bye bye now yeah popper and there is lucretius and it looks like her Hut what is that right there gorilla okay what the heck did I just Witness it's like we're pretty much level nine right now my character and Jahira are lagging a little bit behind but I'm going to level up once I get all of them at the same level that way I can create one save point which is easier for me when I come back to make class guides and things of that nature hope we have a dirt Mound right here oh yeah we must be here only a few points behind um a wooden casket oh no realgor Mephistopheles tiefling um looks like we can pick the entire body up I wonder if that's [Music] oh I think I just jammed his head into the wall Brill Gore okay let's do speak with the dead that actually might be a good idea I don't think this is the clown but [Music] the corpse regards you lifelessly how did you die once paralyzed who killed you dwarf red clothes stranger um I think we just saw a dwarf in red clothes if I'm not mistaken where did you die tunnels beneath Temple hidden from sight I think I've already been to this were you alone when you died helping me oh okay why was he helping you after me needed to hide the Spells power waves you can ask no more questions okay so not related to the clown related to Father Lord again I knew I recognized that name from somewhere who knows got a potion of flying I just bought one of those and look at this how beautiful the city of Baldur's Gate is just left of that mountain right there just west of duskawk Hill might be able to see it actually there it is right there we're heading that way and there's the cave that I was in earlier okay all my characters leveled up so let's go ahead and create a save point and we will now be reaching level nine level 9 out of 12. 85 HP level 3 spell slots unlocked see what we should take here lightning Arrow conjure barrage daylight I think I'm gonna take plant growth because I took Spike growth before which is a really good spell but it does require concentration and I am a ranger that likes to use Hunter's Mark so let's take plant growth and my Ranger can actually run through the difficult Terrain unaffected so that's nice maybe I should have replaced Spike growth oh well it's good to have it there's multiple enemies and I won't feel damage to them okay we have level five spells now as a wizard phone of cold Cloud kill really good spell Contra Elemental bend the barrier between the planes until they discourage an elemental Ally to follow and fight for you I think I'm gonna do that it doesn't require concentration that's actually really nice and then we probably want to take a lower level spell I think we're only gonna have one level five spell slot I've been wanting to take banishment for a while yeah we're gonna take banishment temporarily banish your target to another plane of existence and I already have telekinesis because of one of the items that I'm wearing that'll hurt okay we have level five spell slots unlocked level four spell slot unlocked Contagion to spell evil and good lame strike make a pillar of divine fire Roar down from the heavens like the wrath of affronted Angels that's awesome greater restoration insect plague Mass cure wounds and clean our binding Target and otherworldly creature and attach its Consciousness to your own it will follow and fight for you then we get dominate person and seeming disguise up to four members of your adventuring party as part of our trickery domain subclass okay [Music] and then Jahira we are getting conjure Elemental oh that might actually be pretty good especially with her doesn't even require concentration have two Elementals on the battlefield contagion greater restoration insect plague Massacre wounds planar binding and Wallace Stone okay all Stones probably gonna be pretty good for crowd control and let's head off we're heading towards against the bridge right now I don't see any signs of the clown around here and we are currently stuck on the temple murder quest gotta find a place for the flower key let me run past all these Graves here built the Open Hand Temple gave all in his name we honor their Life and Legacy make sure there's no like perception checks or anything one child and her dog who stood watch over her grave may they be reunited in illmator's Grace

that the creature that I killed what happened to dribbles the Clown bathed in his blood a death worthy of the list of the Tribunal that is freaky what's the Tribunal the greatest honor of them all you'd speak a little faster buddy where is dribble's corpse mistress needed his body parts oh oh that's concerning you singled me out from the crowd why would I see in my own death who are you I am

getting caught up okay all right everybody come out I want you guys getting stuck in the wall let's um it's gonna be faster for me to just go to the Waypoint one of the doppelganger assassins underneath the Open Hand Temple had a strange flowery key okay so we know that dribbles [Music] dribbles the clown star of the circus is missing so we know that dribble's body was being used by his mistress whatever that means let's go check out down here this is the Smithy sign maybe we should stop in there real fast withington General store he seems nice or a bow or a dagger or maybe a spear

assistant only as guildrow is super busy okay all right and there's a picture of gortash right there heroic portrait of gortash and then the circus poster and then a picture of Baldur's Gates I remember larion showed us a screenshot actually of this board with the windmill in the background none of us knew where it took place now we know oh wow look at that great great excited it's the steel watcher holy cow lightning resistance okay looks like they are blocking the bridge but let's walk up and see what happens I'm gonna hit F5 great headline halt by orders of Lord gordash refugees are no longer allowed in the city turn around I have urgent business in the city well do you have the means to support yourself 200 gold you don't need money to support myself I can forge to survive I don't

your name I'm called Daisy Dew Drop fluffington well met citizen fluffington your parasite stairs from the construct you feel connection resonance what in the nine Hells is that thing I am a steel citizen gortash State your business I'm a horrible list my trade surfaced my assistants and I were out collecting blooms for that rub rot going around oof nasty business contagious uh-huh eyes open body still why the Watcher will communicate with our new intelligence directorate they'll determine if you're a threat to the city upstanding citizens have no reason to fear and you are an upstanding citizen aren't you yeah that that's not good that's definitely not good we just communicated with this on second thought I'll come back later communicate with the head of intelligence we just killed Catholic dorm and gortash knows um okay well we gotta get under the bridge at some point let us talk to him and that looks like our way right there see if we can get down here sneak past the steel watch oh if not over then through if I can make this jump looks like I can actually not that far well this is cool wow [Music] and we are back on worms crossing bridge [Music] last time I was here that was the last time I played Baldur's Gate one didn't look anything like this I'm not sure if I should go that close to the front again there's Sheriff says caress [Music] I gotta do my casting I'll give you guys a nice view while I do my ritual casting you can see the city in the distance we're gonna do Aid I want to start using that a little bit more wow Aid level five is 20 healing I would actually do that but I want to try out the level five spells let's do level four looking at that let me prepare some of our new spells here let's get rid of your wounds and let's pick up we got one level five spell slot I think I want to try flame strike first [Music] and then we'll also pick up masculine word I'll have that on [Music] and then for Gail let's go ahead and pick up conjure Elemental and we'll get rid of Pentacles I think we're good to go for the Waypoint right here too worms Crossing this place has been a Haven [Music] we're going to go in there in just a second I just want to see what's up here look at the level of detail in this game it's insane thank you how else was I supposed to see their updates okay let's go to sharessa's after we check out up here is up beside the door so the Harpers are waiting too welcome our stock isn't used tried and tested by the finest adventurers this guy needs a stool reaching star your noble bearing bearing brings a little class to my humble oh you can turn off the charm and floral you thought I had a sale you you tired hacker I missed you too they're already here down below here's the key pleased to meet you Harper and thorough you seem a nice sort so I'll assume the insult was accidental in Farrell's no Harper in claims no love for those who are but he's been known to shelter us when we need it has been known to charge rents Harpers have been known to ignore him now go on the short father may send me an actual paying customer today to buy and a lot of these vendors in act 3 have a lot of rare items targets have disadvantage on saving throws against your maneuver and weapon actions so really good or probably Fighters horns of the Berserker I could probably use that in a plus two bonus to attack roles when attacking creatures that have already taken damage wow unarmed and melee attacks will deal additional two necrotic damage as long as you don't have your full help okay you don't deal any damage this turn you take you take one to four necrotic damage at the end of your turn interesting I think it's worth it especially with my character's insane movement speed I say we buy it lightbringer that's cool too attacking gnomes or dwarves of this weapon receives a 1d4 bonus to attack and damage rolls it looks like he also sells the armor I wanted to buy before but it's just too expensive all right we'll pay that there you go buddy a pleasure Jahira needs more friends like you no problem sir you're on the door till our friends are done God's forbid we do any business today whoa that is cool all right let's see if we can find the basement you break it you well knowing and thou it was already broken the NPCs have personality in this game how to get to the basement Harper [Music] we'll just click in the basement I feel like I'm playing The Sims right now a shine on this meeting hey very formal greeting geraldus you are well yes a high Hopper standing beneath seluna's tears The Lads a little nervous Jahira we heard of your great Victory against Catholic go well this isn't nervous he's terrified and he's using saloonist tears as some kind of code I understand geraldos take a moment and you Harper um there is something familiar about you I doesn't she remind you of our old friend Marcus jahira's meaning is clear Marcus was a traitor laying a trap the same it seems is happening here Marcus was from the last Light Inn in Moonrise Towers the one that took Isabel we killed him at moonrise I don't think we want to say that out loud remain silent wait for jahira's signal the problem with Marcus of course we didn't end on the best of terms oh damn [Music] holy crap oh they're doppelgangers when you inspect them everybody's a doppelganger in this place like that base looks really similar to a halfling in The Druids Grove what must be done one of the Shadow Druids okay let's start off with what's conjure an elemental yeah and we will do a water Elemental I want to see what that looks like wow look at that nice oh that's cool all right and you know I should do a concentration spell but let's go into wild let's go into aloe vera form we have multi-attack and also Winter's breath inhale a freezing torn of ice upon your enemies burning targets undergo rapid cooling and become brittle that's awesome holy cow Elemental warp surrounded by Silver Mist you teleport an unoccupied to an unoccupied space that you can see yeah I think I like these Elementals all right whose turn is it Shadow Hearts turn let's see what we want to start her off with maybe we'll do bless it's been a while since I've done bless hold off on Spirit Guardians for once or we could try one of the new spells hmm see what we got for level five spells flame strike make a pillar of divine fire Roar down from the heavens I think I want to see what this looks like so let's try it on guess we'll try it on this character whoa damn that was a lot of damage she's got one HP all right wolf let's get you out there oh no I knew that was gonna when I saw my character running I knew that I wasted my attack oh my God nice concentration broken yeah there's only one left watch this Oh I thought he was gonna go flying off damn it orange doppelgangers how many is she brought to Ball's side I wonder you all right you're all this how high did I did I get it right Saloon is tears it is that no false face can stand beneath their light an old cold Harper but yes you got it right now I need your report we had eyes on suspected cultists in the city like you asked you thought we were tracking them but they were tracking you instead evidently doppelgangers everything seemed fine until your latest orders until we started to search for the Russia Mall they struck the same night I worked to one of them strangling Kelvin while smiling at me out of her face I do not expect you to die for me but to risk and thoroughly any citizen who might have wandered in there is always a choice and the Harper must be able to make the hard ones perhaps this isn't a life for you after all geraldus no Jahira hi Harper please I'm still a Harper I want to help this work isn't for everyone boy and there is no shame in that go home to your mother and leave the test to us yes High Hopper just Shahira to you now go on I have all the help I need and some explaining to do it seems wow your hair is tough it was tough in bg1 too let's have a chat with her and see what she has to say find everything hunt we know who the false facers are we cannot trust anyone Beyond ourselves we're isolated that is exactly what Oren wanted and I was so busy telling you not to take her bait but I scarcely felt the hook in my I have not been I came here to learn of the chosen true enough but I set my heart for searching for someone else too tell me what do you know of a man named mince of rashman no way the name is as familiar as jahira's own hero of the time of troubles who saved the city more than once you traveled with you back in the old days I sense you mean no insult calling scarce a century ago the old days which is considerably more insulting Minsk is an old friend perhaps my oldest we've fought at one another's backs times Beyond Counting and the last time I saw him I left him to die as someone who played the original games and actually the most recent run that I'm on right now I have Jahira and Minsk in my group together her saying that just makes me feel so good this is so cool what happened before we ever heard of this absolute we received word of a gathering in the undercity what we found was the first dark seed of this plot a circle of cultists with mind flares in their midst we might have ended it there cut off at the root but before I could send for help mins charged in alone it was chaos he was overrun dragged down beneath a mass of tentacles I had a choice stay and let word of this cult die with us or leave him and live to fight another day sorry Jahira that's a cruel choice to have to make the world takes much from those who presume to defend it but sometimes you get to take it back so don't be sorry because I mean to use you if you're willing infection indoctrination eradication that has been the fate of everyone the cult has captured so far but it has not been yours with your help perhaps it need not be minced either we're going to be on a quest to find Minsk and maybe boo is miniature giant space hamster and why are you only telling me this now because I was playing the pragmatist and writing my friend off for dead when I met you if I seem suddenly flushed with hope and soft feeling you have only yourself to blame oh the point is moot without the means to find him without the Harpers we shall have to find another path I'll have a better idea of what that is once we're through the gates seems I need to reacquaint myself with this damn City here is Harper Rendezvous it turned out to be an ambush by doppelganger he revealed that she was hoping for information on an old friend who was taken by the cult Minsk of rashamin you'll search out a new way to find him once we reach the lower City can't wait to do that Quest can't wait okay let's do a little looting shouldn't have wished to live in more interesting times what the hell catch a break oh God look at this guy he's hanging there okay actually you know what I kind of wish I want to talk to and Farrell see if he has anything to say about that who's this guy Robert silt [Music] you look like someone whose Soul needs feeding care to buy some art okay I'll take a look oh he's got all the dyes Bay wild green that's cool come again oh what just happened try that again and we have paintings too red dye you know what I think it might be time to turn my hunter red the feywild green sounds really interesting actually just don't know like how crazy it's going to be oh wow half lean Foresters use this die in their ghillie suits for camouflage okay let's buy let's buy three of those now I'm starting to get obsessed with the Die game start with a cloak okay not bad I guess I'm just not a huge fan of the cloak I wonder what we can do with the helm didn't really change it I think after that we should probably do the boots to get rid of that purple there we go now we look much more like a ranger even though we're wearing heavy armor all right let me just go see if enthal is still there and then we're going to be going into charis's but I should probably pick up Lazelle for that before we talk to kitharak VOS why is everybody running from me oh it's the water Elemental you're going away if you're a lot of cracked another bloody casket they're dead and thoroughly doppelgangers were using them as bait seems they snared more than they could skin him you I did geraldus survive alive but they Harper no more you're right I'll talk him up tight till I can ship him back to his mother what are you going to do hi silly question I suppose okay he really wants to find Minsk what else do we got here I should stay away from the steel watch [Music] check this out the double doors what do we have here oh my God you got to be kidding me I I know who this is if you guys played the original Baldur's Gate games you'll know exactly who this man is a descendant of put them up put one up yay nobody ever talks to me fist silly I'm trying something out my name's narber adventure to be soon to be the best adventure anyone's ever seen as soon as I figure out what kind of Adventure I want to be what do you think can I be a fighter this is voice acted by Co Carnage too it's doing a really good job here's a tip to get you started less talking more fighting right you are I'll just find something to punch I guess it won't hurt will it no surely not okay we'll come back to knobber if we feel like it the Newber and Baldur's Gate one comes up to your party and he's one of the most annoying NPCs that you'll ever meet and he's put into the game to test a player's patience eighty percent of people end up killing him okay for us let's go ahead and pick up Lazelle I'm gonna go to camp and we'll dismiss Ed I think I'll dismiss your hero for this part actually this is going to get really interesting I think the Lazelle in our group it's been a while I have to give her an upgrade with her gear I'd like you to join me okay he's probably let's see what level we got three levels with Lazelle to be pretty simple as a champion fighter yeah so we got a new feed available I'm thinking we're going to take great weapon master you know what I mean let's take it get a feed at level six [Music] [Music] and then at level eight we'll go ahead and boost our strength to 20. now we have great weapon master and also a strength of 20. perfect [Music] indomitable you'll become as durable as an iron golem whenever you fail a saving throw you roll again using the new result instead I like the fighter class simple but deadly [Music] foreign [Music] I've seen the captive Orpheus with my own eyes spoken to chess still kithrach Vosk you lied to us enslaved us the Betrayal of both lies I have only a moment and you a Charlotte will listen we are get Young we move mountains we snuff out Stars we shake the planes the trait of us and heretic Prince would shatter Us in an instant the great Dominion shrunk to the head of a pin can this be true is the death Yankee Prince really a threat to his own people or simply a challenge to block its rule return to the astral prism slay Orpheus The Pretender serve me [Music] you will be no mere Warrior nor kithrach you will be part of luck commander of my only [Music] final chance kneel before me make your promise thoughts become laws sight of obvious looms over her mind bosses words Echo within it she means to Forever turn her back on blacketh good for her even after that promise of such a high position okay stand your ground don't fall for blacket's lies I gave you my faith and told me traitor I gave you 've witnessed too much and you have given me too little finally see Orpheus will live and I will hear his Queen this is my word your word is nothing no I'm nothing Rocky I will tear your flesh from your bones are your skulls Narrows while you Faithful death I will consume you I will admit you damn great voice actors they found a Sharon Lookout nope that's not what we're doing lacketh appeared to us in Camp and made by zellen offer kill Orpheus will Ascend Lazelle to the astral plane and honor her as a chosen Liesel refused angering flakka Hazel believes Orpheus is the way forward for the githyanki we should meet kytherak Vos and find out how to free the prince oh the emperor is not going to be happy about that oh I think Lazelle wants to speak again okay so I'm coming oh yeah look who's in the camp now Jenna kid whose mother died he met Yana right when we came into Rivington for the first time and over the astral sea never to cross the one in the void as it should be better a short life built on truth than immortality woven of Lies better to unite the gift Yankee under a prince who would free their minds and honor their bodies though why do I feel so bitter man liesel's character is really I'm pretty far oh did I just bug out I don't even know like I clicked on continue there was no other choices necklace parasite and explore the furthest reaches of her emotions well I don't okay I don't think she's gonna like that [Music] loss it permeates every corner of lazelle's mind everything she knew to be true every plan and aspiration she ever held has been painfully ripped away lizelle's bitterness is born of sadness she's mourning the loss of the person she once was [Music] I can't explain how you feel Lazelle then the feeling will fade like vlakid's Craven projection I am her child no more I have been born in you and guess son my savior and so from the old battle crisis birthed another [Music] Orpheus must still now fortune for all may the comet Blaze my path forward you've been quick to pledge yourself to orpheus's cause what about your own needs and wants orpheus's freedom is [Music] about myself beyond the Lich Queen who enslaves the gift Yankee and the prince who would liberate them but that time won't come until the prince of the Comet flies again [Music] what next we find voice is caress and retrieve the key to releasing the Orpheus tough kinazin foreign [Music] to work with the emperor and keep Orpheus enslaved I have a feeling that Lazelle will be turning hostile against us I really like lizelle now might like her more than Shadow heart after what shadow did okay here we go nice place temptation I loved many in my day but never once so fair Elegance just waiting to be shattered oh yes I know you're Bliss dirty dwarf a

on oh [Music] it's Raphael's favorite misadventurer put me as a pocket you know Raphael bet me five Soul coins you'd reach the city in one piece he rented a room upstairs in the hope that you'd drop by we saw her back near the circus behind lucretius's tent and she disappeared I think it was her and who are you exactly I've never met I've had my eyes and ears on you so long we've we've gorilla is my name I'm Rafael's instant shall we say pick your time have a drink sample the goods go see him when you're feeling refreshed deal with the devil we found Raphael's servant karilla on the ground floor of shiraza's caress she told us her master awaits us on the top floor alright so we have to meet with kith rock Voss and also Raphael this is going to be interesting maybe a couple drow too if you catch my drift there you go outright two men bark softly to each other single name reaches your ears nine fingers that's the name you know nine fingers is the head of the guild a criminal organization operating inside Boulder's Gate [Music] okay let's do perception listen in on their conversation hopefully we pass this otherwise it could be bad it'll be really cool if we can meet nine fingers Keen the leader of the guild you ratch with the guild now uh nine fingers met a match the new Kingpin the meat and muscle that one and while there's a Werebear if he's looking to house nine fingers my blades got his back sounds messy as the ninth hell must be why she called us to help is that right the way I heard it use ends could a deal with the new hold on you there getting up in our affairs and you're airing private matters in a brothel he's got you there spoon that's it this question does he does so why don't you mate try okay believe him be we already had one run-in whether criminal organization actually two now on the beach and also the guild outside of our first house Hey look it's Valeria the Holly fans we'll talk to Valeria dying going on in here okay Queen roll the despoiler that's actually a having a great time in the brothel you can stare as much as you like okay [Music] all right let's go have a chat with the Holly fans good talk to the bar keep real fast too now that there's a face I'd remember if I'd seen it welcome to sharesse's caress what can Hoots do for you stranger you got a taste for ale I reckon or maybe ah forget it my new Brew could drop you in the wink of a spectator's eye what's the story of this place attention you want and avoid the attention you don't tell me what you have the new is off limits limits can't have them have the members all leaping down my throat if I go burning yours got coffee wine a bunch of camp supplies good to know we could come back here if we need to serve you as well you know as much as I like my Helm right now I think it also kind of looks a little silly in the cutscene so let's go ahead and hide it there we go we look a little bit better like that [Music] we can't interact with another Case Closed another bottle open a shot of Valeria hang on a dick I recognize that face you were talking to Janus after I left the temple um bet she's put you up to something she asked me to find Logan's real killer seeing as you can't be bothered why must you busy bodies insist on interrupting a perfectly good night I know that look reminds me of developer fine you doubt my conclusions out with it what have you found I spoke to brilgore's Spirit a red clad dwarf killed them both well that doesn't make sense why would this Dwarf kill father Logan I need something more than vague allegations look I appreciate the amateur investigator act It's oddly flattering with emphasis on the art but without hard evidence and an alternate motive I consider this case closed really let's talk to him again I presume you've found something interesting to discuss if you're interrupting me a group of shape-shifting Assassins were under the temple along with more murder victims well that is startling it still doesn't disprove my theory that brilgore killed father Logan does it I need proof hard proof emotive too otherwise I'm all right come back to him once we figure out what to do with that flowery key I wonder where kitthrak Vos would be not sure if GIF Yankee would just hang out the open in the city maybe they would oh look at this worms crossing bridge is really an amazing place so cool how this was developed over the past I don't know a century or so in the Forgotten Realms it was just a plain old bridge back in Baldur's Gate one the 1360s okay we'll go to the top floor and try to find Raphael hopefully we can find kiprag Voss as well at some point question is um oh here it is guess we gotta go that way maybe take a left huh such oh no oh my God that wasn't true you know you know what even though that kind of looked like a little bit of a you know what maybe I hit my head on something that you can't see on the screen you take risks like that sometimes they don't go as planned I almost died okay back up we go we're gonna use the knock stall on that door or try to lock pick it if I have any thieves tools try a lock pick first nope no thieves tools probably should buy some of those from a vendor at some point with that said I don't really have a dedicated lock picker okay here we go oh my God I wish I could kiss you better I mean to try um okay we'll check it out right it only makes sense I'm scarato add the nudity filter on I'm not sure what this will look like with it off but God bless am I beautiful more than beautiful you are the Aurora stretched across the north Skies you are the golden Jews swept across the cannon shapeshifter Raphael you you are the fruit [Music] soft on my skin sweet on my tongue you are my sin hey what's up y'all you know parasite stairs days at the nymph through the Flaming fists Hungry Eyes your muscles shiver with her longing your [Music] s what's wrong Jorah what are you wait I know you you aren't safe get out of here now I don't understand [Music] Joe what's going on who's this man oh wow your head screams in agony come chills boiling beneath your skin your bones twisting your flesh rupturing silence what's happening [Music] yes oh my God oh wow what is holy crap the naked mind flare oh nice doesn't have any resistances or anything level 10 though parties level nine okay I kind of want to save her I don't have Sanctuary prepared though otherwise I could use it I don't think I do okay let's kick some butt I'm tentacle actually set okay lazelle's up first let's send her up front line really not too much to the champion fighter Soul breaker run the enemy's body and soul and possibly stun them the psychic damage if you think a mind player would be resistant to but awesome foreign you know what It's gotta land One cam trip now damn it I'm okay you know what we're not risking it or we could do pommel strike that was pretty crazy house I've had Tales of Mind flares Talon's sharp as daggers and tentacles yet more fearsome but no tale did Justice to its ethereal Beauty it floats like a butterfly blood shimmers like silver um that thing could have killed you and you're using on its beauty how could I help it I don't regret its death but I Marvel that such a work of art could ever live her gaze intensifies a breath quickens and your heart skips a beat the woman's senses are heightened and her fire stoked the Mind flare is no mere curiosity but an object of Desire well then I'm glad you're safe as am I my thanks are as Bountiful as your courage take these may you have some comfort in bitter times be well be beautiful feels a little weird but hey you know no judgment here you do you Superior elixir of Arcane cultivation nice get a level three spell slot back that's great that's really good we'll send that to probably shadowheart actually okay let's um let's push on Mr Jara has turned into a mind flare is now dead why I'm worried about getting rid of the you know Orpheus in the prison because I'm wondering if we're going to be turning into a mind flare if we do that you know okay where's the top floor here I think I am on the top floor one of these rooms must be Raphael and the other one must be kithrack boss is what I'm thinking oh looks like a Raphael type of room elminster's Library what bellminster was The Wizard if you guys remember back and I think it was episode maybe seven or eight the mountain pass episode we met elminster one of the most famous Wizards in all of pharoon and also a chosen of the goddess of magic herself mystra and he had a nice chat with Gail and told Gail that Gail should go on a suicide mission to destroy the absolute with his netherrees orb and that's a big part of Gail's story here we actually have another or blast attack that we can do that I think is game over if I use it but let's take a look in this room real fast this is elminster's Library One Night in Nashville the mining town in Baldur's Gate one send that to camp can't wait to do a lore run forward music box okay it actually doesn't seem like there's anything in here black flare leather outfit surgical bed anyone caught pleasuring themselves in the library will be Tethered to the bookcase of chained books any wizard caught examining the special collection without express permission will be commanded to read aloud the whole Library the passage they were enjoying to the whole Library anyone breaking the Silence of the library will be promptly gagged damn okay oh wow look at this [Music] it's gonna bring us to the roof I think it is I don't see anything up here look at this look at the verticality in this game this is insane we could just start raining Fireballs down if we wanted to and actually now that I think about it to get through this next gate well that's back to Rivington actually when we leave this place and try to make it to the actual lower City we have to go this way I wonder if we can come up here and maybe Misty steps somewhere not sure not seen anything up here though so let's go back down and go check out that other room look there's going to be so many secrets in this game when I do like a completionist run the Devil's Den okay here we go I'm gonna hit F5 oh my gosh Kid Rock losses in here too what we're together [Music] you must hear me devil I will do whatever it takes give you anything you ask there is only one thing in this world that I desire you do not have it and you never will Kid Rock what deal would he make with this devil you must help me Raphael for the sake of my people Hush Now boss these guests may not know it yet but they want the same thing that you do and unlike you they have something of value to offer in return gear the devil holds the key to freeing the gift people right here right now you could seal Our Fate whatever you discuss with this devil I must hear of it find me Below in the tap room once you're loosed from his claws I'm glad you came not to my door yet but to the final Reckoning one more thing before we begin though you're going to the House of Hope for the first time since the nautilite your mind is clear unsettling another party trick show me something real that was no party trick somebody's missing can't you tell you keep in your pocket can't hear us anymore wow and speak freely Raphael tell me why you brought me here I brought you here because I'm true to my word and I can make all of this tadpole business go away which means you and your lovely friends can remain blessedly free of tentacles let us speak plain I'll admit you've impressed me I wasn't sure you'd make it this far but no matter how far you come you're still on the road to ruin a road that leads directly to a confrontation with the Elder brain at best it will kill you and everyone else in this city at worst it will assimilate you and you won't have enough Free Will left to even wish you were dead you have the key to destroying it in the palm of your hand though the astral prism in a manner of speaking but it's the one inside the prison that you need not the illifid the gift I can give you the means to break him free speak devil we're listening and why would I want to free him I suppose you'd rather suck on the emperor's tentacles till the end of your days Orpheus is your only hope of surviving this horror show without devolving into an illited to you you will be a friend after all you're at war with an elder brain hmm the emperor is the only reason I'm still alive no Orpheus is the only reason you're still alive the emperor is abusing the gift for its own ends and it's doing the same to you you're nothing more than the Beast of Burden that will transport it to the Elder brain an ox requires food and the occasional beating to keep it moving you are simpler the emperor's words serve as both carrot and stick Perhaps it is true that Orpheus would Ally with you against the Elder brain but if he proves uncooperative once free you may have to kill him being pulled in so many different directions right now lyrion makes it really hard to know what is right and what is wrong makes a story so interesting never trust the devil can I really trust the emperor mind flare that's been living in my brain that wants me to turn into a mind flare need to ask some other companions their opinions right now clearly Lazelle wants me to free Orpheus and I do like Lazelle and I think I may even trust her more than most others seems like she's a straight shooter Gino is the error of her ways and she's changed now doesn't support blacketh anymore was a nice turning point for her that made me trust her even more how do I free Orpheus the orphic hammer an artifact capable of shattering the chains that hold Prince Orpheus is held securely In My House of Hope even now it's very convenient that you have exactly what I need isn't it just and it's even more convenient that you can give me EX actually what I want in return this is where it gets tricky tell me what you want Raphael I want the crown that dominates the Elder brain and you Lazelle of killier want to free the Forgotten Prince do you not I want nothing more then it is subtle is it not a crown for a hammer bargain of a lifetime Lazelle handing that Crown to this devil will be like feeding gunpowder to a lava worm agree to nothing what exactly is the crown power ancient and full of wonder I have craved it ever since the arch wizard curses created it long centuries ago and brought Doom to the Empire of netherill that was the great age of humanity and netherals flying Sky cities were the Apex of civilization I was there the day it all fell apart entire cities plummeted from the sky like angels with broken wings the screams oh the screams hundreds of thousands of people watching in horror as the ground came up to meet them hahaha it was not a happy meeting and casus was responsible not driven by malice but by ambition he forged a crown imbued with all the powers of magic a crown that would make any who wore it no way men cannot contain so much power the crown destroyed its creator and his empire fell with him causes his folly the birds and Scholars call it I call it hope the hope of creating a better world and the Perils of unchecked hubris I knew then that the Folly of Mortals could be the Triumph of devils and that I could use that Crown to unite the nine under one Arch devil Supreme me he wants to become the ruler of the nine Hells over asmodeus with the crown that is insane and also the fact that larian was able to tie the crown into the event known as karcissus Valley which is when the netherise Empire Came Crashing to the ground it's crazy because you have the specifics of that event in Forgotten Realms history I've always been a little vague now larion and probably working with Wizards was able to create this crown that ties back to that event karsus the spell that he cast called karsus's Avatar supposed to make him a god it must have to do with this crown really cool the lore that we're getting I'll have to do some videos in the future further explaining this stuff why didn't you take the crown then and there the arch devil Mephistopheles snatched up the crown and squirreled it away in one of his walls he is not more than a frigid archivist so much power and potential kept in hurt he made a miracle into a museum piece I raged but only for a decade or so then I waited ever watching for more than a thousand years for a mistake a mishap a misadventure and these chosen who have caused you so much trouble accidentally did me a favor they brought the crown back into play Raphael getting the crown and taking control of the nine Hells I mean not probably not good but also that wouldn't be our immediate problem we could maybe solve our immediate problem which is the elder brain and the absolute and the nether stones with gortash and Oren and then just pray that Raphael with the crown and the nine Hells doesn't become a problem too which it most likely would at some point how do they come to have the crown through the aid of a diabolist somebody capable of opening a portal to the Hills they must have raided Mephistopheles Vault impressive I must admit but they'll be dead soon if you don't kill them the Elder brain will it doesn't have feelings in the way you'd understand them but it seems rather angry it is inevitable when you destroy the brain and you will because you must the crown will be yours for the taking and when that moment comes you give the crown to me in exchange I give you the hammer now now a sinful transaction it seems but it's more than that he's offering you an alternative to the Mind flare in your head take Raphael's deal and you could free Orpheus with Orpheus free you would have no need to rely on the emperor but there's no guarantee that Orpheus would be on your side and if you take the deal you'll have to fulfill it you'll have to deliver the crown of carsus to the Devil Himself he claims his ambition is to unite their health but can he be treated to stop there do you trust him more than you trust the emperor no Prince of the Comet must rise again hmm I'd rather destroy the crown Raphael than risk it falling into the wrong hands again how short-sighted much better to put it into the right hands hands that will ensure it is removed from this world and it's the only way you can ensure that you remain part of this world I can't do it as tempting as it is I can't do it you just can't trust the devil like that and Raphael is clearly a manipulative intelligent devil No Deal Raphael I'm leaving I won't stop you but time is running out so don't stay away for long if you see reason I'll be here waiting right up to the moment the world ends okay I'm happy with that decision because it looks like we can come back to Raphael and still take that deal and that is what I was hoping for because I have no idea what I want to do right now this is tough a story in this game and the decisions we have to make might be some of the most intense somewhat Choice paralysis type decisions that I've ever had to make in an RPG any artifact that could command an Elderberry must be omnipotent for it to be the very crowd causes forged verges are unbelievable I assure you the hammer Raphael offered is mere scrap metal in comparison whatever use he claims for it we should pay a visit to sorceress Sundries their book collection is the Envy of the sword Coast I'm certain the truth lurks somewhere on their shelves I like gal's plan sounds like an excellent idea the only kind I have Mrs Sundries is no Trading post serving the Arcane Community for centuries their collection of rare tomes leathery sex are hardly commonplace but I'm certain they'll have one or two stashed away you'll have to forgive my eagerness but if my suspicions proved to hold water this could be the answer to all our problems I like that plan the best not sure how Lazelle is going to feel about our decision though the prince of the Comet was within our grasp and you you and why interesting look at the first response we can take the hammer from the House of Hope ourselves don't know if that's true but I might tell that to Lazelle now let's go with number two I don't trust the devil that orpha camera is probably worthless don't be broker is asbound by his contract as his buyer the hammer must be real or Raphael could never take the crown lucky for us we've another Comet the devil keeps the orphic hammer in his lair if we can find a way in we can take it okay I'll use it to smash the true ass bonds the gift Yankee will be free first tavos then to Raphael's House of Hope don't expect a lavish spread awaiting us this time now there's no way to know if the decisions I'm making are the right ones or not but this actually kind of seems like it's going right right now which is a nice Oh I thought I lost you something was blocking me from hearing your thoughts um it was nice to have a moment of peace and quiet I can understand that is reprieve in solitude but it's concerning something could intervene like that especially when we are so we are so close to the elderberry do you have any idea what it was and low Charisma character you know I'm starting to feel quite suspect I mean I always have felt a little suspicious of the emperor last episode of the episode before I started to feel a little bit more Trust a little bit more comfortable with him but now I'm starting to be highly respect again all right let's uh we're gonna try to deceive it was the Elder brain it was trying to take hold of me and actually regardless of how this turns out it looks like I'm not gonna pass because it's 25 I need a 20. the way that the emperor reacts to this Maybe telling us quite a lot Passover fast not trying to deceive me why someone must have looking at someone you don't want me to know about they feel the touch of The Emperor's mind peeling at the edge of yours trying to gain access and succeeding Raphael of course I should have known the devil would come sniffing pending chaos is irresistible to them and what we want with you crying into my brain like that that's between me and Raphael I see again the emperor prize at the boundaries of your thoughts invasive curious you're the one who's always talking about trust if you trust me you'll stop this right now that is a fair request you feel its presence withdrawing from the fringes of your awareness I shall respect your privacy on this occasion but know that if you have jeopardized our mutual project I will be forced to reap well he already kind of forced his way into our mind a little bit okay let's go talk to kithrak VOS like I have a lot of potential alliances going on right now but a lot of them could come Crashing Down at any time these alliances are held by a very very thin red we refused Raphael's deal but the devil said he'll be there if we reconsider we learned that the key to freeing Orpheus from his chains is in the astral prism in the astral prism is the orphic hammer it's in Raphael's possession so tracking down his lavish Abode in the hells the House of Hope may be our best bet that's really cool I didn't think larion would let us actually do that but it sounds like we will be able to Raphael proposed a deal if he gives us the Arctic Hammer the key to free and Orpheus we give him the crown of karsus once we defeat the Elder brain he refused we should probably talk to Vos who's waiting in the sheriff's caress Tap Room hey you paid Rafaela visit oh he's right here I ran right by him thought I'd miss a get Yankee [Music] Warrior of warriors tell me you took the devil's deal tell me you will free gets air I will find another way to liberate Orpheus boss I did not come this far for you to turn your back on the first Mother's Son gift cards have Kim crashed you put your trust in me Voss I plan to honor it yes and it seems I have no choice but to trust there is but one prism and you are its key find a way to retrieve the hammer and free Orpheus from the prism I will assemble his remaining honor guard and plan our next actions together we will yet free the true air of gifts blessed Empire he will free us from Blacklist and Lead our kid Rocky against the gate is Dick I will wait in the underground seek me when you have the hammer in hand Orpheus sensed the tadpole before and his guard attacked won't he attack if we free him the prince of the Comet aches for gith Yankee Liberation more than he abhors Gage he might seed when you free him he might gnash his teeth and slander your name but he will see reason I promise you any idea where Raphael might keep the orphic hammer a devil of Raphael's stature does not simply make camp on the shores of the sticks he will have made a sanctuary for himself a lavish one two one that caters to his many vices the hope the House of Hope you say I couldn't ask for a name more fitting every house has an entrancistic even those in the hells you must find it foreign you are wasting your time and mine our true enemy is the elder brain Focus your mind there so I was about to end the episode right there but I ended up running out here and walking past this door right here gave me an update on the solve the Open Hand Temple murders Quest so instead of ending the episode let's go ahead and finish that little side quest if it doesn't take too long and that'll be a nice stopping point because I think after that we're probably leaving the Rivington District [Music] but if you come up to this door right here [Music] something happens there we go it's all the Open Hand Temple murders prego's Flop House is adorned with flowery motives matching the key we found underneath the Open Hand Temple we should see what that key unlocks let's go ahead see if we can find anything in here [Music] sure good sir give me three days and oh I apologies I thought you were someone else a greetings so forth so on who did you think I was a landlord sir frago and tuna uh most generous soul I assure you okay I think we're looking for I'm not exactly sure something to open up with a flower key s got a basement here Temple I said I can't believe I got kicked out of the Temple if I click on these these will all be stealing one more Mark then we can go disadvantage with stealth right now Mark that doesn't sound good well hello beautiful aren't you a sight to behold you must excuse my brother he forgets that we have a very pressing engagement you must excuse my sister she's a terrible ball but you look like someone who enjoys a party there's a celebration being held in the Palace of Casados are why not join us vampire spawn I don't know I don't normally accept invitations from strangers oh thank goodness we're such good friends then this is not the time Petras Yes dear sister I know we have places to be we'll leave once our good friends here have Departed I look forward to seeing you at the palace though it'll be a once in a lifetime experience I promise wow I almost turned into mist didn't know they could do it I almost didn't click on those NPCs just shows you how much is in this game that is part of a starion's quest we met what looked like two vampire spawn in frago's Flop House they invited us to a party in casador Zara's Place sounds like something sinister is going on we should investigate I definitely plan on doing that at some point but we gotta make it to the city first got a ladder right here nothing suspect in here imagine being in this room that would be terrifying really cool though um let's see okay let's go check out the ladder hmm what do we got up here now we can start opening things Nobody's around do I want to steal from this place I don't know man I don't think I need to then again the owner we're gonna steal the owner doesn't seem like a good person picture of beer absolutely um that shape-shift is key unlock the door interesting whoa oh okay malice coat your active weapon with poison oil of combustion and hit coated weapon covers its Target in oil for two turns a little balcony here a sheep butchered with creative Sky's kit we're gonna take that Temple plan these tunnels were full of shape shifters father Logan's name is written here too we're on to something messy splatters of deep red Brown Adorn the scrap of parchment those wishing to face the dreadlord's tribunal enter the Temple of ball must slay the targets on this list and frame the corpses as a Murder By The Cult of the absolute ring the victim's hand as proof of the killing walk in blood aspirant whoa Duke stelman's on here elf song Tavern killed father lorgan dribbles the Clown we're gonna keep this letter that's for sure a few of these people haven't been killed yet those wishing to face the dreadlord's tribunal enter the Temple of ball must slay the targets on this list this is getting exciting we'll take that we'll take the temple plans with us too father lorgan's name appeared on a Target list we found Hein is murder into a test for cultists to access the Temple of ball we should show investigator Valeria all right so back to the Holly font we go another Blood Stained note right here what has pulled on the wooden floor Ranger survival follow the metallic scent to the blood track its origin you notice the blood source body hidden under the bed ifeon gold grind he has a key a flower-shaped key with five scratched into the petals it's identical to the one held by that corpse in the tunnels and we also found a list of people Marked for Death if we kill two Targets from this list and bring a severed hand as proof we can stand before the murder tribunal and enter the Temple of ball wow that is going to be fun to do on an evil run that's awesome I think we're gonna have to find a different way on this character though all right let's do speak with the Dead no sound effects regards you lifelessly Who Are You Leon gold grind what is this place how did you die no I didn't dude done wow filial betrayal is it a tale as old as the gods themselves oh wow that opened up a ton of questions but we only have five questions to ask where can I find your son the corpse remain silent it does not know who is your son the Spells power wanes you can ask no more questions man the amount of like content in this game is insane like I could have just came in and grabbed the note and then left but then like we found a key we did speak with the Dead okay let's go talk to Valeria we could probably just fast travel yep around easily I presume you've found something interesting to discuss if you're interrupting me again father Logan's murder is just one part of a bigger plot a ball plot a ball plot you as well develas been harping on about ball for months fancies herself something of an expert I assumed it was just a bunch of conspiracy codswallop and fear-mongering but she's been unusually insistent about this one even for her fine I'll bite what's your theory why should I tell you doesn't sound like you even care well that's just a song but I'm off the clock and this is developers Pet Project since you seem to be on an obnoxiously similar wavelength why don't you seek her out she'll be at the elf song Tavern show her the list and I'll stay and inform the fist here oh and you'll need this pass it'll give you access to the lower City nice uh what are you doing well what are you waiting for you've a bloody conspiracy to solve move my character's face during that okay so I guess we are we got a lower City Pass that's exciting that means we can get into the lower City without having to hope I don't know maybe we'll have to go through that checkpoint where one of the steel watch is going to connect to my brain I'm not sure investigator Valeria is now convinced father Logan's murder is linked to a wider plot and has asked us to bring the news to a constable Gauntlet develop in the lower cities elf song Tavern that is so so exciting elsong Tavern obviously you could visit in the original Baldur's Gate game but it's also the tavern that the Baldur's Gate dark Alliance action RPGs uh start in in dark Alliance one that's really exciting but this is going to be a great time to call it quits for this episode episode is quite long and we have learned a lot and we have a lot of decisions to make not exactly sure where this story is going to go but I can't wait to find out sorry thank you all so much for watching I'll catch you on the next episode
