Walkthrough[]
Baldur's Gate (1998)
This icon indicates content from the original Baldur's Gate campaign. When waking up the morning after the events at the end of the Prologue, Gorion's Ward notes:
| “ | My foster father Gorion is dead, killed while defending me from a mysterious armored man and his cohorts. Someday I will have my vengeance upon this man, but for now it would be best to travel to the Friendly Arm Inn. Gorion's last instructions were to go to the Friendly Arm Inn. There, I'm supposed to meet two people named Khalid and Jaheira. | ” |
With Imoen as companion, his foster child now may follow Gorion's last instructions or choose an own path. Heading east along the Lion's Way and, once on the Coast Way, to the north, will bring them to the Arm, where in the northwestern corner of the tavern two half-elves hold their eyes open, waiting for a friend.
