The player will run into the wizard [[Elminster]] either immediately prior to Act Two on the path to the Shadow-Cursed Lands via the [[Rosymorn Monastery Trail]], or immediately after entering Act Two from the [[Grymforge]] elevator. He reveals an important update involving Gale's relationship with Mystra, who has one last favor to ask of her former lover. This will impact much of the player character's interactions with Gale moving forward. | The player will run into the wizard [[Elminster]] either immediately prior to Act Two on the path to the Shadow-Cursed Lands via the [[Rosymorn Monastery Trail]], or immediately after entering Act Two from the [[Grymforge]] elevator.

While prying the depths of the player character's mind in search for proof of their faith, she might be distracted by the option '' "Show her your yearning for Gale" ''. Choosing this won't progress the romance itself, but earn some approval from the wizard. | ||
Sometime in Act Two, after combat with Gale in your party and with high enough approval, the wizard will show out an indicator of a chat pending (an exclamation sign). He will speak about a book he read once, that explained how dangerous situations can have an effect on one's desire for other forms of stimulation. Then, he will ask the player character if they have ever read anything on the subject. If answered with any option other than simply changing the subject, Gale will approve and confess that he wants the player character more than ever before, but say now is not the time or place for such feelings. | Sometime in Act Two, after combat with Gale in your party and with high enough approval, the wizard will show out an indicator of a chat pending (an exclamation sign).

Gale | Most events and interactions with Gale during Act Three within his [[the Wizard of Waterdeep|companion quest]], and the choices the player makes throughout, have major implications for the outcome of a romance with him at the end of the game. The main difference appears in regards to whether the player encourages Gale to seek and use the [[Crown of Karsus]] or not. Failing to finish Gale's questline before defeating [[the Netherbrain]] will also affect the ending. | ||
As part of [[the Wizard of Waterdeep]] questline, once the player gets the book [[the Annals of Karsus]] and lets Gale read it, he thinks he can use the power of the Crown for himself. He wants to talk to you privately about it. Upon leaving [[Sorcerous Sundries]], the party will be intercepted by Elminster who tells Gale that Mystra has requested to speak with him at the Stormshore Tabernacle. After the next long rest, Gale will have an exclamation point above his head, signaling that he wants to talk. During this conversation, he'll create an illusion of the [[Astral Plane|realm of the gods]], with both of you in a rowboat. | As part of [[the Wizard of Waterdeep]] questline, once the player gets the book [[the Annals of Karsus]] and lets Gale read it, he thinks he can use the power of the Crown for himself.
