Have you guys ever found Lorna?!
For some context, I'm a little new to this game and this world... My husband introduced me to BG3 earlier this year, and I'm only on my second play through now. I've romanced Astarion both times, because how could I not? And I found the craziest little plot moment last night, and had to ask if you guys have encountered this...
So, I'm deep into Act 3 right now, almost done with this run, we're all lvl 12... and I'm trying to complete as many things as possible (that I even know about, because from what I have read and can see, there is always something new when you play again)... so I'm down in the sewers, we've done Orin, we've done the Iron Throne (actually managed to save Ravengard), so the next thing I'm teed up to do is Ansur, then crush the Steel Watch so I can take on Gortash, and then wrap up the game.
But... I wanted to complete ALL of my companion quests this time, so I'm working on finding Minsc for Jaheira.
So we're down in the sewers and I find this little wooden barge on the glowing green sewage water, and we board...
Down the way we go, and we find this lone citizen named Lorna, looking around curiously...
Mind you, unintentionally, I've got Astarion selected/leading the way at the moment...
We walk over and start a dialogue, and this poor lass is telling us all about the handsome man she's got a date with, she's waiting for him to meet her... she met him at a tavern, and they had dinner (he brought his own metallic smelling wine and pushed his food around his plate** and everything), and he seemed so into her, she was supposed to meet him at the "palace" for "a party" but she got turned around, and she's waiting for him there.... and... come to think of it... you look just like him...? O_O
BRO. We ran into a woman that would have become one of Astarion's victims. Which was ultimately confirmed when I went through a nearby door, only to find myself back in Cazador's dungeons (killed him way earlier on, so the rest of the map was already revealed).
The dialogue options were kind of funny, but also kind of like... O_O -awkward-
Astarion says nothing to you about this after. I wish there were some kind of dialogue right after where he's like, "What? don't look at me like that... Cazador's orders..." or something.
Lorna ultimately runs off after the conversation.
Has anyone else found her?? For additional reference, she is one pit stop on that raft away from where you find Voss if you pursue the Orphic Hammer.
** I actually wondered about Astarion eating, or not eating, real food. I know in some lore (TVD, Twilight, etc.) they CAN eat human food, but usually only for appearances, in no way does it sustain them. It seems in this world, he may not even be able to eat it? And now I want all of those wasted camp supplies back... or I wonder... does it even count Astarion when using up your camping supplies? I've not noticed, and now I am wondering.
