Lens is a journalist working for the Baldur's Mouth Gazette in the Lower City. She can be found north of Sword Coast Couriers, just before the bridge to Wyrm's Crossing in Rivington during Act 3.

Act Three

Lens will hail the party as they pass by on the way to Wyrm's Crossing. She is collecting information about the refugee and closed-city situation, and can direct the party to the Baldur's Mouth Gazette to begin the quest Stop the Presses.

Completing her interview earns the Inspirational Events Press Release (Noble background) and Blabbermouth (Entertainer background).
