A simple question, where is his family´s keep? I cant see it on the map. And how about, do I have any time to keep doing other guests before going there, although it should be hurried?

Oh and one more thing, which one of these would you drop from your party..Jaheira, Nalia or Aerie? Not that Im dropping anyone, just asking how much you, fellow comrades, like/dislike them.

Have you told Nalia you would help her? Because the keep should show up on your map. I'd try travelling again. You can be as liesurly as you want when doing the quests. There usually isn't a time limit. Now...I would drop BOTH Jaheira and Aerie. They complain too much [img]tongue.gif[/img]

NiceWorg 10-23-2002 09:54 PM

Yeah I have agreed to help and she´s in the party now. Is the keep on the slums map or on some other part of the town?

It's outside of Athkatla, somewhere to the east on your map. It should be highlighted if you go to the city gates district of Athkatla and leave town that way.

It's way to the east of town; look on your map for the D'Arnise Hold. You'll first have to go to the city gates to leave town.

Okay, thanks everyone. Well if there is no time limit I can probably lay back and do a bunch of other quests before leaving the city.

Oh I so agree. I am just plain uncomfortable with the idea that the designer's of Baldur's Gate II saw women that way. I am uncomfortable because it is so disgusting, and so familiar. It is the familiar part that bothers.

I know the tricks, I know the whys, and still it sucks. While it reveals a weakness in men that is never spelled out, it still doesn't cast a shine on the female halo.

The only female that came close to being a real one (imo) was Mazzy, and I suppose, as a female, I am prejudiced. Still, I didn't keep her because better a nasal, demanding, Anomen, than someone who leaves at the drop of a hat.

A tank is a tank. And when you are dying (translate: loosing in a battle) you tend to think of that which restored balance and the possibility of survival in a prior battle. Mazzy is a great tank. But she runs out there like a fool, and for all her skills, quickly becomes someone you have to take care of, rather than someone who saves you.

(Personally, I cannot tolerate having a party member die unless I don't like them.)

Unless the rest of your party is smarter than mine, anyway. A great feel good NPC, but a problem in the ongoing situations where the holding-back attitude is the smart, and successful one.

So I have never taken her far. And the time I did, she split to save her sister. Nice relative, but lousy member for my group to spend XP on. I have to work from where I'm learning first, anyway. I just don't like party members who join and then quit quick. The transient nature just makes me p.o.'d to the max.

I hate quitters.

Ewwwww!

hehehe..count my landlord in if any of you wish to create "Anti - Nalia" clan or something. He HATES Nalia (Reckons she probably was created by someone who had a whiny, whinging excuse of a girlfriend).

The Ozzman 10-24-2002 08:26 PM

By the way, of the 3 people you mentioned I would definitely drop Aerie.

Framon 10-25-2002 09:34 AM

Personally I'd drop Jaheira - or "the sponge" as she's also known ( cos all she seems to do is soak up your XP points )
