Cut and unimplemented content: Difference between revisions

A '''gnome village''' was once proposed as a potential region early in the game's development. It is unclear as to how far development of the gnome village went, but it has since then been either cut or cancelled, and no official trace of the gnome village remains; except for a 2018 concept art of the village drawn by Dan Iorgulescu.<ref>Artstation Artwork: Dan Iorgulescu. [https://www.artstation.com/artwork/dKN9KJ Baldur's Gate 3 Gnome Village]</ref>

It is unknown where this village was supposed to fit within the game's story, but there are still enough lingering traces of information left to get an early grasp of the region. As the artwork's name has ''angla-ved'' in the name, it is very likely that it is supposed to represent {{FRWiki|Anga Vled}}, a gnome village located on the river Chionthar, west of both {{FRWiki|Elturel}} and [[Moonrise Towers]]. The only other piece of information on the village comes in the form of an in-game note named {{SmRarityItem|Urgent Report for Duke Ravengard}}, where a Flaming Fist Manip reports on the advances of the [[Cult of the Absolute|Absolutist army]]. The note mentions that Anga Vled has been taken by the Absolute's forces shortly after they left the [[Shadow-Cursed Lands]] in [[Act Two]]. It is possible it was originally intended for the party to reach Anga Vled sometime between the current Act Two and [[Act Three]] sequences, though the objectives and goals of such a sequence are unknown.
