Heading upstairs, the party will be greeted by [[Lorroakan's Projection]] and four portals, one of which is the correct one to transport the party to Lorroakan. | |||

Arriving in Baldur's Gate in Act 3, the player is tasked to meet with Lorroakan to find out what he wants with the Nightsong.

Heading upstairs, the party will be greeted by Lorroakan's Projection and four portals, one of which is the correct one to transport the party to Lorroakan.
Using the far left portal, the party is teleported to Ramazith's Tower in the Upper City where Lorroakan is using his assistant Miklaur as target practice. Noticing the party, he will question them on whereabouts of the Nightsong.
Lorroakan has been in contact with Ketheric and Balthazar and has searched for Dame Aylin to give himself the same ability of Ketheric's: immortality.[1]
The player can answer truthfully as to the whereabouts of Nightsong, or succeed various Ability Checks to deceive him into believing that she has been killed.
If Aylin is at camp and later informed of Lorrokan's intentions, she will depart for Ramazith's Tower to confront him, despite Isobel's efforts to stop her.
