He will recognize the party as being aboard the nautiloid and agrees to join the party in order to find a cure for the tadpoles together. He also reveals that he is on the hunt for a devil escaped from Avernus, and that he knows she is somewhere close.

 Back at camp, on the next [[long rest]], Wyll announces the arrival of his patron, Mizora. She introduces herself to the party, greeting everyone mischievously, and reveals that it was her who gave Wyll his mission to hunt down Karlach. If Karlach was killed, she will be pleased and will reward Wyll. If she was spared, however, Mizora will remind Wyll the terms of their pact and argue that Karlach does indeed fit the description of ''heartless''. Should Wyll insist on not killing the tiefling, Mizora will take it as a breach of the pact, transforming him into a fiend as punishment. The same result will happen if the party never completes Wyll's mission and ignores Karlach entirely.

 ==== The Blade of Avernus ====
 If Wyll rejected the possibility of becoming a duke of Baldur's Gate, he will take the mantle of ''"the Blade of Avernus"'' and vow to hunt devils in their own homeland. By the time he is summoned by [[Withers]] for his gathering six months after the events of the game, Wyll has become a seasoned slayer of fiends, boasting about his many hunts. With a contract broken, he will also mention that he's working with a diabolist from [https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Calimshan Calimshan] to use his sending stone eye to track Mizora, setting his sights on his former patron. If still bound to his patron, he mentions that she's been surprisingly hands-off, sending him only after demons and devils as per their agreement. If Karlach was convinced to return to Avernus with Wyll, they join efforts together to find a cure for her mechanical heart, growing closer after many months together.{{ref|[[Epilogue]], lines spoken by Karlach during Withers' gathering when both she and Wyll ended up in Avernus by the end of the game.<br>''"Wish Wyll and I had more time to reminisce, but surviving Avernus is just non-stop. Still, having him there has been incredible. You really can get through anything with someone you love at your side."''}}{{note|Karlach's quote about Wyll isn't elaborated further, and can be interpreted as platonic or romantic love.}}
 ==== Grand Duke of Baldur's Gate ====
 Should Wyll become Grand Duke of Baldur's Gate, he oversees the reconstruction of the city, parleying with influential nobles for aid and tightening bonds with the other cities of the Sword Coast. If Ulder Ravengard lives, Wyll works with him in order to marshal the forces for peace and renewal. The city's gates are opened to all refugees that need sanctuary and the Council of Four is reformed, with an invitation to becoming a Grand Duke extended by Wyll to a romanced player. If Wyll never broke his contract with Mizora, she remains involved in his life, enjoying the political intrigue in her human guise, though she's been keeping Wyll on a long leash for reasons known only to her.
+==== Grand Duke of Baldur's Gate ====
+If Wyll's contract is broken, and Ulder Ravenguard is not saved from the Iron Throne, there is a possible ending of Wyll hunting monsters across Faerûn as a ranger.
