Golbraith is found on the first floor of his home, a building north of [[The Blushing Mermaid]] {{coords|-148|-60}}. If the player reassures him that they know how to deal with mind flayers, he will give them a shield originally gifted to him by Abdel Adrian, [[Abdel's Trusted Shield]].{{note|Apparently, Golbraith was a friend of {{FRWiki|Abdel Adrian}}, the canonical identity of Gorion's Ward, the main character of the previous installments of the ''Baldur's Gate'' series. Some details about this can be read about in the book [[Confidant of a Duke]] found on a bookshelf beside Golbraith.
