— Auntie Ethel about Lorin's fate

Overview

Act One

If spoken with while Auntie Ethel still lives, Lorin tries to avoid looking at the party, but turns eventually if continuing to speak to him. Lorin panics that the talking party member is a monster, seeing them as a Mind Flayer.

If spoken with after killing Auntie Ethel, Lorin remembers seeing the talking party member as a Mind Flayer and runs away. If the party did not speak to him before killing Auntie Ethel, he is more reasonable, yet still scared.
