If Viconia is defeated in combat, she will normally be "knocked out", even if the party is not using non-lethal attacks. Talking to her after the combat triggers a conversation, which will include Shadowheart if present. Here the party has the choice to kill Viconia or spare her. Killing Viconia allows her equipment to be looted, but Jaheira will disapprove. The decision can also affect certain Paladin oaths, can otherwise be treated as an aesthetic/story choice. | If Viconia is defeated in combat, she will normally be "knocked out", even if the party is not using non-lethal attacks.

The door can be opened either with the {{SmRarityItem|Silver Key}} (carried by [[Sharran Fidelian Lamona]]), by lock picking it (DC 30), or by placing items amounting to 1000 or more gold value in the scale on the statue of Shar. If Shadowheart is a Dark Justiciar, the door opens on its own. | The conclusion to Shadowheart's quest is a final test beyond the Threshold of Loss.

In addition, fewer than four [[Nightsong Point|Nightsong Points]] have to have been acquired in the previous acts; if this is true, then after triggering the second of those memories, a new conversation will happen where Shadowheart talks about the city smells. If these conditions are not met, Shadowheart will choose to honor her parents' wishes by default. | In addition, fewer than four [[Nightsong Point|Nightsong Points]] have to have been acquired in the previous acts; if this is true, then after triggering the second of those memories, a new conversation will happen where Shadowheart talks about the city smells.
