Shadowheart will only propose it to you if you sided with the Tieflings and if you have at least medium approval. You'll meet her away from camp later that night, where you will have a deep conversation. After some dialogue, the camera fades and returns a few hours later showing both of you laying on the ground, holding hands. You can choose to kiss her, and then both will return to camp.
Next day, you can have a conversation with her regarding the previous night. Her dialogue will depend on her level of approval.
Trivia
- According to Larian Studios, until Patch 3, Shadowheart was the most romanced female companion and the second most romanced companion overall.
