Undercellar

The undercellar is a public underground place of rest underneath Baldur's Gate that can be entered through the sewers or the Blushing Mermaid. If you enter through the Blushing Mermaid, a guard will talk to you and demand money to walk through the undercellar. He will let you pass whether you pay or not.

In Chapter 5, Quenash will be in one of the undercellar's rooms and is needed in the subquest where you need to find the Helm of Balduran. She will give the player a clue to where the helmet is which points to the Helm and Cloak inn in Northwest Baldur's Gate.

In Chapter 7, Slythe and Krystin will be in the center of the undercellar. The player must kill them both and then pick up the invitations they hold. This will allow passage into the Duchal Palace.
