“The thing's dangerous. Leave it for the goblins to kill.„
Involvement[edit | edit source]
Act One[edit | edit source]
Nymessa and Damays captured Lae'zel and are discussing their next steps. Nymessa wants to leave her in the cage but Damays wants to bring Lae'zel back to their camp. When the party arrive in the area, Lae'zel telepathically demands for the player character to free her. This initiates .
A party member can offer to aid Nymessa and Damays in killing Lae'zel, or persuade them to release her by passing an Ability Check. If the interacting party member is a drow, drow half-elf, duergar, or githyanki, the tieflings will attack out of fear. Their attack can be dissuaded by passing a DC 5 Intimidation check.
Before leaving the area, if the tieflings were not dispatched through intimidation, the party can ask if they know of a healer. They will direct the party to seek out Nettie, which updates and initiates .

Idle banter[edit | edit source]
Nymessa and Damays argue about whether to bring Lae'zel to the Emerald Grove.
Nymessa: Just leave it.
- Damays: And when the goblins ally with it?
- Nymessa: We'll be on the road to Baldur's Gate.
- Damays: Don't be naive. When this thing strikes, there will be no soldiers to protect you. This isn't Elturel.
- Nymessa: We'll be on the road to Baldur's Gate.
Nymessa: You think it's dangerous?
- Damays: Of course it's dangerous. One of them carved up Zorru's whole squad.
- Nymessa: So let's leave it.
- Damays: And let the goblins have it? No. We take it to the grove.
- Nymessa: So let's leave it.

Notes[edit | edit source]
- Despite being a tiefling, Nymessa does not have Darkvision. This may be a bug.
- If the player selected Lae'zel as their Origin, Nymessa and Damays will already be dead when the player character arrives at their location.
