Florrick is located at the [[Last Light Inn]]. She recognizes and can directly speak with [[Wyll]] while there.  
Upon traversing the [[Shadow-Cursed Lands]], Florrick can be found at [[Last Light Inn]], in the north-eastern room on the ground floor of the inn. She and her Flaming Fist troops are still planning a rescue for Ravengard. Without a safe way through the cursed shadows surrounding Moonlight Towers, her efforts unfortunately are in vain. As are their attempts to get information from [[Art Cullagh]].


== Act Three ==
While there, the player can speak with Florrick, and gain some news from the city and its new Lord Gortash. She will then inform the player of her plans and eventually depart for Baldur's Gate, intending to convince the council to send reinforcements for rescuing the duke.
In Act Three, Florrick is in Wyrm's Rock Prison where she can be freed as part of the quest [[Free Counsellor Florrick]]. Once rescued she pledges to aid the party and becomes one of the potential forces they can call upon during the final battle.


If [[Wyll]] decides to break his pact with [[Mizora]] during [[The Blade of Frontiers]] and forsake his father, she'll approach the party in Baldur's Gate if Wyll is part of it, and will threaten to attack to avenge [[Ulder Ravengard]]. She can be convinced to stand down with a [[DC]]18 [[Persuasion]] Check or a [[DC]]15 [[History]] Check.
Note that once the party reaches [[Moonrise Towers]], Florrick and her party will depart for Baldur's Gate, leaving a note on the table in Last Light Inn. Thus visiting Moonrise before Last Light Inn will result in finding only the note.


If convinced, and since Ravengard is presumed dead, Florrick will direct the party to the next step of Wyll's companion quest: [[The Legend of Ansur]].  
===Act Three===
{{main|Free Counsellor Florrick}}
In Act Three, Florrick can be found in [[Wyrm's Rock Prison]] where she awaits execution after being found guilty of crimes against the city of Baldur's Gate by none other than [[Ulder Ravengard]]. If the player decides to rescue her, she pledges her aid in the final battle and [[Florrick's Cohort]] becomes one of the forces the party can call upon.
In case Florrick isn't rescued within five long rests after the quest [[Free Counsellor Florrick]] starts, she will be hanged by the neck until dead and her body will remain hanging from the gallows at the Basilisk Gate .


Otherwise, she and her retinue of Flaming Fists will become hostile. The Legend of Ansur will need to be acquired by other means.
If Wyll decides to break his pact with [[Mizora]] during [[The Blade of Frontiers]] and forsake his father, Florrick will approach Wyll and the party while they are in Baldur's Gate, with the intent to avenge Ravengard. The attack can be avoided if the player succeeds a  {{Ability check|Persuasion|18}} or a {{Ability check|History|15}}.
Once convinced, and presuming Ravengard is dead, Florrick will hand Wyll [[The Legend of Ansur]] and direct the party to the next step of his personal quest.
If all attempts to reason with Florrick fail, she and her retinue of Flaming Fists will become hostile. In that case, the book needs to be acquired by other means.
