Act 3: South Span
Step-by-Step Walkthrough
- Since we saved Wulbren, go ahead and cooperate with the guards and robot. Wulbren will show up and save you at the last minute, run past them and to the next checkpoint. If you're worried because it's HM and you don't want to risk Wulbren not showing up, if you head around to the right instead of to the guards, you'll see some scaffolding and ladders outside of the south span buildings. Just fly over there and climb up to avoid the gaurds altogether.
- Our first stop is Fraygo's Flophouse, on the west side of the street. Go upstairs and find a ladder in the NE room. In the attic, there is a door behind the big wardrobe. I just have Astarion destroy the wardrobe, cuz it's kind of annoying.
- In the next room you find some blood under the bed. Interact with it to find the corpse. You can loot Ffion's key from it. Read the notes on both the desks.
- Next go into Sharess' Caress. Talk to Mamzell Amira at the desk, tell her about Ffion.
- Go back and to the right through the curtains to find Arfur. Let him know you're onto him and get more info. You can take the bribe or not, don't think it comes up again. You can sleep with the drow twins in the room if you want. It's comp'd because we found Ffion.
- Head upstairs and talk to Valeria. Tell her about the evidence you've found. She'll give us a pass to get into the city, but we're not done here yet!
- Keep going upstairs, and then out onto the balcony. Go into the first room on the left (lockpick). Straight ahead by the spa is an Archducal Invitation you can steal. Go talk to the people in the room to fight another mindflayer. You can also try to charm this lady, she gets off on the danger apparently.
- The next room is Ffion's room. I'm not sure there's much to find here, but you can look around if you want.
- The final room has Raphael and Kith'rak Voss. You can either agree or not to Raphael's request. We're going to rob him blind later either way, so make whatever choices you want. If you take the Orphic Hammer from him, Kith'rak Voss will give you his legendary sword, but Emperor gets pissy. There's not much consequence though, so I just do that, another sword to sell. Talk to Kith'rak Voss on the way back to the street to get your sword.
- We've got 1 more fight, then we'll head to Lower City for shopping spree!Go to Danthelons Dancing Axe in the NW corner of the street. Go upstairs and talk to Entharl, mention that Jaheira sent us. Do some shopping before walking away. I get the Horns of the Berserker and Cloak of Displacement for Astarion. You can give the cloak of protection to someone else.
- Turn around and head through the blue double doors and down the ladder to the basement. You'll get into a conversation, if you pass the insight check, you'll notice they're bad guys and can get the jump on them in the fight. Either way, they're not much of a threat, so take them out.
- We are done with the South Span now, head north and give your invitation to Blaze Elin. Gortash will talk to you, I would keep it polite, we're not ready to fight him yet. I got to level 10 here. You can go deal with the ceremony now if you want, I think you'll get some XP. Just agree to team up and don't cause trouble, he'll kill us at this point, besides, who doesn't want to be on Lucius Malfoy's team? Also make sure to get the waypoint on the west side, it's kind of annoying to get here. They raise the bridge and make it a pain later.
