Halsin provides vital assistance in the process of lifting the Shadow Curse, and that cannot be completed if he dies. He asks that the party keep an eye out for any information regarding a boy called {{CharLink|Thaniel}}, who is in fact the land's spirit. | |||
Once given a lead to Thaniel's location by {{CharLink|Art Cullagh}} (whether through waking him or {{SAI|Speak with Dead|from his corpse}}), Halsin will perform a ritual to open a portal to the [[Shadowfell]] and retrieve the boy. Failing to protect the portal from the waves of shadow-cursed creatures will lead to the portal closing and Halsin becoming lost to the Shadowfell forever. | |||
If Thaniel is successfully rescued from the Shadowfell, Halsin will offer to join the party fully, becoming a permanent [[Companion]]. However, failing to fully complete the quest by locating {{CharLink|Oliver}} and reuniting him with Thaniel before proceeding to [[Act Three]] will cause Halsin to leave the party and remain behind in the Shadow-Cursed Lands in the hopes of lifting the curse by himself. | |||
