Baldur's Gate: The Zero Reload Saga

Nah, not yet. Like I said, we’re only doing this to get Keldorn, since we’re REALLY not up to taking on beholders yet. (I.e. We do not have the Shield of Balduran.)

On our way to the sewers, we came across that lady who tries to convince the priest of Talos into thinking that he got drunk one night and knocked her up, so that she can scam cash out of him.

For those who do not know, Talos is the god of storms. He’s a violent, foul-tempered son of a bitch, and so is everyone in his clergy. With that in mind, this woman is extremely lucky that she and her daughter didn’t get taken into the temple and have their skulls caved in with a hammer. I mean, there are priests of Lathander (the happy love god of light) just up the street and you target the worshippers of the BATSHIT GOD OF LIGHTNING AND WANTON DESTRUCTION?

And of course she’ll try and pull exactly the same thing on Vespero if he decides to talk to her. We all remember Vespero’s portrait, I trust?












Good lord. We‘d be performing a public service by ridding the world of this child-exploiting bitch, but of course attacking her turns the whole district hostile, so we’ll have to stay our blades. But by god if it isn’t under protest.

Anyway. After a quick dip into the sewers to recruit Keldorn, we now move back to the Slums to take a quick dip into the other sewers so that we can retrieve Lilarcor, the talking sword. Why the temple district needs its own separate set of sewers, I don’t know. Maybe they don’t want the holy crap being mixed in with the common crap or something.

Speaking of holy crap; holy crap! Korgan and Viconia just levelled up. Viconia now has level 5 Cleric spells to play with, and Korgan earned himself another proficiency point.

So hey, now that I think about it, why don’t we go and finish off those nasty slavers while we’re down here? Apparently a reputation of 14 isn’t good enough for Lathander’s clergy, and we can pump it up twice by finishing this quest. Let’s kick some butt. For goodness.
