Hhune Mausoleum

Hhune Mausoleum is a location in the Lower City of Baldur's Gate in Act Three. It can be accessed through the Graveyard of the Lower City. The aboveground entrance is on the northern side of the mortuary.

Overview

The mausoleum contains one sarcophagus and several hidden (DC 15) tripwire traps. A hidden DC 20 Perception check cracked tile east of the sarcophagus contains the Hhune Mausoleum Iron Key.

Opening the sarcophagus requires a DC 15 Strength check check. Inside the sarcophagus is the Hhune Mausoleum Golden Key and a note, THE LEGACY OF HHUNE, which states:

KNEEL WITH THE WEIGHT OF ALL YOU VALUE AT HIS FEET, AND HE WILL REVEAL HIMSELF

At the foot of the sarcophagus, in between two columns, is a tile which is highlighted in turn based mode. You can walk each of your 4 party members across the tile to activate it, or place approximately 180 kg / 400 lbs of weight on the tile to activate it. (Had my character with 142 lbs of equipment walk over it and it worked but please verify further) ^{[Needs Verification]} It will open a hidden door on the south eastern side of the mausoleum.

Hidden room

Inside the hidden room is a Knights of the Shield statue, and a journal written by one of the members of the Knights. In the journal, the writer mentions being introduced to the Emperor, who they believed would be a "boon" to the Knights.

Beneath the statue is a gilded chest which can be unlocked with the Hhune Mausoleum Golden Key, containing some potions and gold. Beside it is a heavy chest which can be opened with the Hhune Mausoleum Iron Key, containing some alchemical ingredients.

A crumbling wall on the west end can be destroyed to access Gorion Mausoleum.
