— Kepso, to Horys Crysst

Involvement

Kepso is stationed together with  Fist Wearne and  Fist Silena outside the South Span Checkpoint and is responsible for addressing local complaints. They form the first line of guard, preventing refugees from entering Baldur's Gate through Wyrm's Crossing. Silena and Kepso are arguing with  Noira Crysst and  Horus Crysst, who fruitlessly beg to let them in.

Like most other Fists at the checkpoint, Kepso abhors the presence of refugees. Unlike Silena, he does not mince words while expessing his opinion in their faces.

Idle banter

  Citizens only. I won't say it again.

  • Horus Crysst

    But - but we walked clear from ⁠Amn. There's nowhere else to go. Please -

    • Fist Silena

      Orders are orders. We've got ours, you've got yours. I need you to step back.

      • Noira Crysst

        There must be something -

        • Fist Silena

          I said step back.

• Horus Crysst

  Please. My son - he's only a boy. You must understand -

  • Fist Silena

    Sir. Sir. We can't let you in.

    • Horus Crysst

      I - I thought we'd be safe in the Gate. I heard the stories.

      • Fist Kepso

        Wail all you want - we've got enough mouths to feed. We don't need your kind.

        • Horus Crysst

          Our - our kind?

          • Fist Kepso

            Refugees. Outsiders.

            • Fist Silena

              Enough, Kepso. Sir, you need to stay clear.

• Noira Crysst

  The Duke - Ravengard, I think. I heard he's a good man.

  • Horus Crysst

    Let us talk to him. Please. If he could just -

    • Fist Kepso

      We have the Duke's full support. For the good of the people. Our people.
