Kar'niss may be first encountered in two different ways. While entering the Shadow-Cursed Lands from [[Rosymorn Monastery Trail]], a group of [[Absolute]] followers will be waiting for [[Minthara]] to arrive and summon the guide. The player can use the [[Spider's Lyre]] to summon Kar'niss, then follow the convoy to [[Moonrise Towers]].
Kar'niss may be first encountered in two different ways. While entering the Shadow-Cursed Lands from [[Rosymorn Monastery Trail]], a group of [[Absolute]] followers will be waiting for [[Minthara]] to arrive and summon the guide. The player can use the [[Spider's Lyre]] to summon Kar'niss, then follow the convoy to [[Moonrise Towers]].


Otherwise, if the party reaches [[Last Light Inn]] before meeting the convoy, they may travel with a group of harpers to an ambush site. Kar'niss and his caravan will pass by the site, and can be defeated or convinced to leave the lantern and travel in to the Shadow-Curse.
Otherwise, if the party reaches the Shadow-Cursed Lands through [[Grymforge]], they may encounter Kar'niss' caravan mid-transit - either alongside a group of Harpers to ambush them and claim the lantern as part of a quest given by [[Jaheira]] at [[Last Light Inn]], or alone if they explore the Shadow-Cursed Lands and come across the checkpoint without interacting with the Harpers first. The Harper ambush will also be encountered if the party followed the caravan from the start. In each of these scenarios, the party may choose to follow the convoy to Moonrise, kill Kar'niss and his followers to take his lantern, or convince him through dialogue to relinquish it and walk away to his death.


If Kar'niss and his convoy are convinced to leave without the Moonlantern during the ambush in [[Seek Protection from the Shadow Curse]], they can later be encountered as {{cond|Shadow-Cursed Undead}} in [[Reithwin Town]], south of the statue of [[Ketheric Thorm]] outside the [[Sharran Sanctuary]] and north of the bridge to [[Moonrise Towers]]. They are automatically hostile to the party in this form and cannot be interacted with other than by attacking, but Kar'niss will still appear as {{cond|Temporarily Hostile}} if attacked. He will be joined by several [[Shadow]]s, undead [[Harpers]], undead prisoners, etc. thus making the fight unnecessarily difficult.

If Kar'niss survives the road to Moonrise, he will run up the tower to seek the Absolute's blessing on the rooftop, where he can be encountered one final time as he fights alongside Ketheric when the party storms the tower at the end of Act 2.
