If the [[The Netherbrain|Netherbrain]] is defeated while the player is partnered with Halsin, the two will be seen spending the night together, where Halsin shares that he needs to return to [[Thaniel]]'s [[Shadow-Cursed Lands|realm]], help the residents and nature heal, and care for the hundreds of displaced children there. The player can offer to travel with him and help him rebuild, but if they choose to stay in Baldur's Gate, go to [[Avernus]] with Karlach, or travel with their other partner, it is implied that they maintain a long-distance relationship in the six-month time skip.

If the player chose to stay in Thaniel's realm with him, he asks if they're sure about their choice of a quiet life over an adventurous one and expresses concern over whether the children will be safe, as this is his first time leaving his duties since the Netherbrain fight. If the player ''only'' romanced Halsin and did ''not'' stay with him ''or'' go to Avernus, it is possible to receive invitations to [[Withers]]' reunion party with him and still enter the [[Campsite]] as a couple (due to a glitch that sometimes skips Halsin's romance ending if he was not in the party against the Netherbrain); otherwise, the player enters with Karlach (if they went to Avernus) or alone. Other than being able to ask for kisses, Halsin's dialogue then remains the same as if they were friends or exes: he shares about his efforts in the realm, asks the player what they've been up to for bedtime story ideas, gives them permission to visit and tell the story themselves, and offers the {{SmItemIcon|Whittled Duck}} as a parting gift.

Other than being able to ask for kisses, Halsin's dialogue then remains largely the same as if they were friends or exes: he shares about his efforts in the realm, asks the player what they've been up to for bedtime story ideas, gives them permission to visit and tell the story themselves, and offers the {{SmItemIcon|Whittled Duck}} as a parting gift. However, players who romanced Halsin can joke that they would've asked him to read them stories and tuck them in during the adventure.
