If Viconia is refused and defeated, the party may enter the Threshold of Loss, Shar's hidden sanctum. There, Shadowheart will come face to face with her parents, long thought dead. Shar's ultimate test for a Dark Justiciar requires her to slay them. In doing so, Shar will bless Shadowheart by wiping her memory and tasking her with rebuilding the cloister. Shar's faithful will be available as an ally for the final battle. If Shadowheart turned from Shar, she will have a difficult choice to make: save her parents but be forever bound to Shar's curse, or sacrifice her parents and sever the curse at last. Whichever choice is made completes {{Quest|Daughter of Darkness}}.

During the party's next long rest, Shadowheart will be found waiting for the player character at a statue of Selûne. If she turned from Shar in Act Two or saved her parents as a Dark Justiciar, she reflects on her feelings now that she truly knows who she is and, if her parents are alive, worries that they won't be able to look her in the eye after the torture she put them through. She breaks down crying in the arms of the player character (if they select "''Embrace her''") and/or her parents (if they're alive) for a while before deciding to reclaim the name Shadowheart for her new self, as "you can't cast a shadow without some light." Otherwise, if Shadowheart both overthrew Viconia and killed her parents, she instead mocks Selûne and vandalizes the statue by covering it in the blood of Dame Aylin.
