Talk:Rescue Garren's child from Firkraag/@comment-38186748-20190203015544

A bit related to the trick explained in the comment below, but after you accept Garren's hospitality and Garren leaves, just walk out of his home before Iltha/Taar(not sure what the name was; the boy version if you're playing a female protagonist) shows up with the gnome and run to the ruins. Garren will appear in front of the ruins and inform you that his son/daughter is lost.

Rescue him/her and exit dungeon, Garren will still be there in front of the ruins and complete the quest for the 45k quest exp. Run back to Garren's house and you will be able to take credit for the quest again, doubling your quest exp. You might or might not need to kill Lord Firkraag, I did but haven't tried without killing him. This was in BG2EE 2.5.16.6, newest Steam version.
