Disambiguation icon Not to be confused with Brennan Risling (Shadows of Amn).

Brennan Risling is a commoner encountered in Chapter Seven of Baldur's Gate near the north entry point to South Baldur's Gate. He approaches Gorion's Ward and party on sight, speaking of the rising tensions with Amn and the increasing possibility of war with the southern nation, the potential "plague and pestilence" that could follow in its wake and the growing local sentiment that Sarevok is the best choice for a new Grand Duke.

Dialogue[]

Ayup, there be tensions rising 'tween us 'n Amn. There'll be war soon, 'n plague, 'n pestilence. Better them than us, I say.

1-Plague and pestilence? What from?
From war, of course. What else do ye think would follow in its wake? That's why we need Sarevok as Grand Duke, for he'd take the resources from the Iron Throne an' assist us. Attack first an' fight the war on their soil rather than our own. As I told ye, better them than us.
2-Do you really think there'll be war?
Aye, it's inevitable by now, I figure. That's why we need someone like Sarevok as Grand Duke. He's with the Iron Throne and they've got good iron. Funny how somethin' small like iron can win a war fer ye or at least make it a little shorter an' more liveable for us poor folk.

Either one of these dialogue trees leads to the following entry in the quest section of your Journal under the title The Rise of Sarevok:

It seems Sarevok is vying for the title of Grand Duke. His connection to the Iron Throne has made him popular with the masses, as many now equate the high quality of their iron with the surety of success in the coming war with Amn.
