Act One
If Baelen is rescued, Derryth will reluctantly accept his return and thank the party, explaining that she and her husband are in the Underdark to look for Noblestalk, a mushroom with incredible restorative properties. She plans to sell it to keep their shop afloat in Baldur's Gate after Baelen had nearly ran it bankrupt to pay for drink. When asked about their cold relationship, it's implied that Baelen was abusive towards her before he had lost his mind.
If the player mentions that they found some Noblestalk, Derryth asks for it though she has nothing more to offer in exchange. She will, however, give up her wedding ring if intimidated for a reward. Once given, she will thank them and request they visit them at her shop in Baldur's Gate — Bonecloak's Apothecary.
If the Noblestalk is given directly Baelen, he will consume it to regain his senses, much to Derryth's horror. Baelen will likewise ask the party to visit them in Baldur's Gate saying that he owes them one. Derryth will express her disgust at the party and refuse to trade, telling them to leave her alone.
Act Three
If Baelen was not given the Noblestalk, he will be found at Bonecloak's, helping Derryth with the shop and will cheerfully greet the party. If the Noblestalk was not given to Derryth previously, Derryth will mention that the shop will not be able to stay open much longer.
Going through Derryth's journal upstairs in this iteration will reveal that, at some point in the past, Derryth was especially sick of Baelen's drinking and abuse after their return from one Underdark expedition and vowed in writing "if he hits me again, he's going to find some wyvern toxin in his porridge the next morning," explaining Baelen's disposition in Act One.
If Baelen was given the Noblestalk, he will be found alone at his shop, saying that Derryth had run off one night, fearing his wrath for using him. However, seeing as how there are Absolutists in the city and a murderer terrorizing the citizenry, there isn't much for him to complain about as he has not had any unfortunate run-ins with them so far. He even goes as far to joke that, with any luck, the trouble will end up finding Derryth instead. Should the party condemn him, he'll state that it's what he does to make ends meet, assuming that the player has likewise not been able to do get to Baldur's Gate without getting their hands dirty.
In this iteration, Derryth's journal will instead talk about how she regrets how the years she's spent suffering under her husband had hardened her heart and made her as cold as Baelen was. And while she has been able to put up with him in the past, the simple return of Baelen's old self has killed her spirit more than any of his past abuse ever did, so she has resolved to leave him.

Notes
