I recommend trying to keep yourself out of the main hallway chokepoint and using AOE spells to clear out one side. If you have to fight in the chokepoints, spells like Cloudkill or Hunger of Hadar can work wonders. Long-time Baldur’s Gate fans will recognize Viconia DeVir as a companion from the first two games in the series.

Side Quest Details

If you offer to investigate the cause, the quest will be added to your journal. Investigate the House of Grief is a side quest in Baldur’s Gate 3 where you delve into the mystery behind an old man’s missing memories. This quest serves to introduce you to the House of Grief if Shadowheart is absent or her companion quest isn’t a priority, so our walkthrough will ensure you don’t miss out. When you first arrive in Rivington during act three, you can find the Sharran lookout on the east side of the village, close to the Requisitioned Barn.

If you want the optimal gameplay choice, removing the curse is a boon. Make the choice that feels right for you and for Shadowheart. Head into the dorms to find Nocturne, a childhood friend of Shadowheart’s. She’ll sell you some goods and also give you some lore about her and Shadowheart’s time in the cloister. Nocturne will also tip you off about a secret area near the armory; head over there and take down the wooden planks, and you can find Shadowheart’s secret hideaway, surrounded by Night Orchids (her favorite flower).

The lookout's name is Ferg Drogher, but he won't talk to you unless you speak to him, making it quite hard to figure out he's the lookout among all the refugees gathered. Speak to him with Shadowheart in your party, he'll direct you to the cloister, and you'll progress her Daughter of Darkness quest. Mother Superior is actually Viconia DeVir and she will give you a dilemma moment. Viconia will ask you to hand Shadowheart over to her so that there will be no problems. Here comes a big decision for you, as Shadowheart no longer wants to be with people who worship Shar and harm her. You can either defend Shadowheart and fight Viconia and her comrades or surrender Shadowheart to Viconia and let her down.

If you do decide to face off against the cult, you can also loot the Legendary Viconia's Walking Fortress shield from Viconia DeVir. If you choose to kill her, Minsc will approve this and you can loot Viconia. If you spare her, Jaheria will approve this and you will never see Viconia again. If you do not choose to brutally lockpick the Threshold of Loss door, you can place several items on the altar to unlock. A Black Diamond will be present on the altar which you can choose to take (this is an item that can help with opening the portal to the House of Hope). Either you must choose to lockpick (DC30) the door, or choose to sacrifice items of worth at the altar located in front of it.

The couple’s aim was to co-write a book based on his extraordinary archive — 300 boxes! — of personal papers and curios, from voluminous speech drafts to a shattered police club from the 1968 Democratic Convention in Chicago. So far my party has survived the longest by retreating to the stair and conjure Evard’s black tentacles but that pretty much means I have to sacrifice Shadowheart while the rest of my party stay behind the Tentacles.

What not to ask the loved ones of those who have died by suicide

Husband and wife spent years perusing and discussing those treasures, an effort short-circuited by his death in 2018, at 86, of cancer. Amid her grief and a move from their rambling home in Concord, Mass., to a Boston condo, Goodwin took up the project on her own. Grieving children, teens and adults deserve the opportunity to experience the healing process in a safe, warm and nurturing environment. The healing process is enhanced through the friendships and connections that are developed in support groups.

Note that this does not grant you entry into the Chamber of Loss where Shadowheart's parents reside, and unlocking the door to the chamber will cause all of them in the area to fight you. Refusing to give Shadowheart will trigger a battle with every enemy in the room, but you will able to progress her story in finding her parents. "Do not lose your parents, not again" - You have to pass a DC20 Religion or Persuasion check. During the camp scene after a long rest, Shadowheart's parents will approach her.

Despite it being such an important quest step, it can be quite hard to find the House of Grief, or the Sharran lookout who Shadowheart mentions you should locate in Wyrm's Crossing. Talking to her will initiate dialogue options regarding the artefact that protects you from the Mind Flayers. You can choose to side with them in getting them as allies for the final battle, or defeat them to progress Shadowheart's story in finding her parents. Proceed into to the room and have Shadowheart sit on the bench. Proceed with any dialogue choice and eventually Viconia DeVir, Shadowheart's mother superior, will grant you access to the Cloister of Sombre Embrace by revealing a hidden passage.

Once you have defeated Viconia DeVir, you can attempt to open the Threshold of Loss door behind her safely which leads to the chamber where Shadowheart's parents reside. Giving Shadowheart will end her questline here and she will leave your party permanently (this will cause disapproval among party members) in exchange for having Viconia's army as allies. "You should end their suffering, and yours" - Shadowheart will turn her parents' spirits into Moonmotes. They might have perished, but their spirits will always be with her. After a long rest (or two) at camp, there's a scene where Shadowheart stands in front of Selune's statue, tearful that she only had a brief moment with her parents. Shar, the Mother of Night, chides you for your foolish efforts.

As disabled people we understand how false that notion is and how harmful it can be. So I commend Wong and the collection’s 40 contributors for taking on this topic. The school hosted a series of conversation circles for parents that were often very tense.

Not just a speechwriter but a policy advisor and political strategist, Dick Goodwin enjoyed a Zelig-like march through 20th century American history. Supreme Court Justice Felix Frankfurter, Goodwin worked for two presidents, John F. Kennedy and Johnson, and several would-be presidents, including Eugene McCarthy and Robert F. Kennedy. He later wrote the concession speech that Al Gore delivered after the Supreme Court stopped the recount of the 2000 presidential election vote in Florida. Goodwin, the author of award-winning biographies of Lyndon B. Johnson, Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt, Abraham Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt and others, has a nice touch as a storyteller. Here she successfully navigates the awkward feat of weaving together the couple’s gently probing conversations, her husband’s archival documentation, other historical sources and her own reporting.
