The ballroom is being guarded by [[Gheris Hhune]] and several [[Werewolf|werewolves]], [[Wolf|wolves]], [[Bat|bats]], and [[Rat|rats]]. They cannot be reasoned with and will always fight the party. A passage to the left contains an elevator leading to [[Cazador's Dungeon]]. There are two side rooms to the ballroom as well: a room leading to the attic and a hidden dining room. Pressing the button in either room will seal one room and open the other. | The ballroom is being guarded by [[Gheris Hhune]] and several [[Werewolf|werewolves]], [[Wolf|wolves]], [[Bat|bats]], and [[Rat|rats]].

In the hidden dining room in northwest corner, the [[Counting House Safe n°1 Key]] can be found in an Opulent Chest {{Coords|-1308|1020}}. Underneath this Opulent Chest is a hidden locked trapdoor (unlocked by the [[Silver Key (Szarr Palace)|Silver Key]] found in the attic area), which leads to a secret puzzle area. The locked door in the first room can be bypassed by placing items (the nearby metal crates) on the two pressure plates. There are four pressure plates in the following room, which are tied to noxious gas and flame traps; activating the four pressure plates will lock the door behind and open the door ahead. Beyond is an opulent chest, surrounded by traps, which contains some random loot and a book, [[Dawsen Kiltmaker's Confession]]. | In the hidden dining room in northwest corner, the [[Counting House Safe n°1 Key]] can be found in an Opulent Chest {{Coords|-1308|1020}}.

In the southern bedroom is the [[Cursed (Condition Type)|cursed]] corpse of [[Victoria]], [[Leon|Leon's]] young daughter. Approaching the corpse will afflict party members with {{Condition inline|Vitality Drain}}, causing {{DamageText|4d6+4|Necrotic}} per turn and halving movement speed. Casting {{SAI|Remove Curse}} on Victoria's body will end the {{Condition inline|Sapping Curse}} and make the room safe to traverse. Alternatively, an [[Elixir of Necrotic Resistance]] can be used to mitigate the damage, or [[Jump]]/[[Flight (Condition)|Flight]] to bypass the hazard entirely. | In the southern bedroom is the [[Cursed (Condition Type)|cursed]] corpse of [[Victoria]], [[Leon|Leon's]] young daughter.

* If Astarion is in the party, he gains a status called Curse of the Sired for the duration of his stay in the Palace. Curse of the Sired gives Astarion disadvantage on all saving throws "while in a place of trauma". The condition can be overwritten by the [[Sweet Stone Features (Condition)|Sweet Stone Features]] condition gained from the [[True Hero of Baldur's Gate]] statue as long as it is Astarion who is depicted by the statue. Astarion in this case suffers no penalty from Curse of the Sired and gets to keep the benefits of Sweet Stone Features even while in the Palace. | * If Astarion is in the party, he gains a status called Curse of the Sired for the duration of his stay in the Palace.
