This scene is so much more satisfying with Rolan in it. While he doesn't do much in this exact cutscene, the interactions prior to the fight and post fight make his arc all the sweeter.
I agree. I also like what Lorroakan has to say about Rolan if you do speak with the dead on him. Small thing but still funny considering how much Lia and Cal would tease him about his magical ability.

@@NickWayXIII I mean I don't see anything in that that would break her oath. Lorroakan is literally trying to imprison her for unnatural immortality using necromancer magic. Also, Dame Aylin is in the final fight (for me) with her full powers, so no I would say she still has her oath. The feeling she expresses is meant to be her wearied at the realisation that she'll likely be fighting the same battle her whole immortal life. This is the second guy in a tower to try to trap her forever within a week of her century long imprisonment.
when i saw him for the first time and he demands aylin so he can get her immortality like ketheric, i was like "aint no way im gonna give my angel mommy to lazlow from gta v", told aylin about it and kick his ass together
The best...if it doesn't get bugged. In mine, even when i had saved her in Act 2 and told her I would join her agaisnt Lorroakan, she appeared as "dead" suddenly in my quest log, making this scene super weird as I had her alive and dead at the same time.
In mine after this cutscene she just stood there brooding over his corpse, and never returned to camp. Then I went back there like 20 hours of gameplay later, talked to her, and suddenly Isobel instant transmissioned next to her and they had a cheery conversation about how they were gonna go do something else until the end of the game. Was worried the game would consider her dead or something but it worked out ok.
I didn’t get this cutscene either because Roland pushed Klank off the edge and she flew down to kill him while I took out Lorroakan. I did think it was weird that his corpse stood upright and bugged out, but yeah no cutscene. Act 3 of this game is a fucking mess
i think it's pretty bugged. in mine it never triggered bc she flew down to the puzzle level beneath the fight location, and from there she vanished post-fight and never returned to camp. hope she comes back lol
@@ancientalien000 talk to her on the 2nd floor, then go back to camp and talk to isobel, then sleep, then go back to the tower and talk to here again. this SHOULD cause a cutscean to happen where isobel is just there next to her and they will tell you they are going to some temple.
I'm not much further in the story, but she mentions a fatigue after this moment. I think her killing Lorrokhan here (after he was unable to fight) was a breach of her Paladin Oath. And thus became a Oathbreaker. Could be wrong though.
She's just tired of fighting. If she broke her oath she'd lose all her holy powers right then and there. But in any case shes a psychopath. Wouldnt take long for her to break her vow.
@@bluntlyhonest6803 How is she a psychopath? This is literally the third time someone has tried locking her away to become immortal that we've seen and the guy is a complete and total ass. I think it's pretty fair for her to Bane the bastard.
@@C4MG1RL she supposedly always was like that. Imprisonment didnt help og course and her rage is justified. but shes a fanatical zealot, who justified her acts of cruelty by claiming It is her goddesses Will. Those kinds of people cant be trusted.
@@bluntlyhonest6803 She's a zealot for her literal mom, yes. But unless I missed something the only time we see her actually go off the rails on are people who kinda deserved it: Ketherac and Lorrokhan. She's always been basically the old edition paladin but it's not liie she's going around like Omniman to some random bandits
Killing him yourself without her is probably better for her since doing this seems to make her feel bad, probably because she feels something dark within herself growing. Though it's considerably less cool. She just thanks you.
Nightsong: : im daughter of a god . also Nightsong: dies second time in a row ( first time was ketheric )in one turn , while tav has to save her ass again
Aylin is Aasimar so she takes half Radiant Damage and Half Necrotic… if she “died” (which she can’t permanently) in one turn imagine if it wasn’t her taking those hits but your party instead. X2 as much damage
Didn’t know this scene existed because I yeeted him off the top floor then pulled the ole owlbear from the ropes move with Jaheira. He didn’t stand a chance
Ok I did not get that option. I just got a dialog option about bringing her over so I could watch her tear him apart. I killed him of course, killing your war through wizards towers is a BG tradition. Ironically even ramizaths tower.
Yea you can literally go snitch on him to her after he offers to buy her and she’ll immediately leave to kill him. If you wait to long to help her fight him she can die though so you need to immediately return to the tower
Lol just found out this scene exists. In my walkthrough she kicked someone down and followed him on the lower floor. After fight ended she was just standing there with no intent to move anywhere else :(

No cutscenes between them or anything, he was just a random dude.
I mean you do hear about him from the mercenaries that you meet at the gate to the druids grove, other than that he is supposed to stay unknown to you practically. Just a guy who sent out a bounty to retrieve the nightsong@@Gxbbzee
To me it implies a backstory around the binding ritual and it’s original intended use. The fact that she feels like she just lost something but even as an emissary and child of a god can’t remember what, signals that a powerful entity has repressed her memories. Just a guess but I think she voluntarily co-created the binding to extend her immortality to her lover. This would have been way back before the first fall of Moonrise Tower.
She's just very old, and very tired at this point. Think about it, she'd been kept trapped for over a century in Shar's realm, killed countless times by Thorm's Shar worshipping followers to raise them as Dark Justiciars. She finally gets released from that prison, and the first thing that happens is some Wizard immediately tries to re-create her imprisonment for his own benefit. She's immortal, but she's clearly been traumatized by the experience.

the scene before the fight for Astarion is such a gut punch seeing the consequences of his own actions right before. That whole thing feels terrible.
