If the party chooses not to fight their way through, they come face to face with {{CharLink|Sarevok Anchev}}, along with the Echo of Amelyssan, Echo of Sendai, and Echo of Illasera. The party can ask various questions about Sarevok and how he is still alive, his ties to Orin, and information about what the Murder Tribunal is. | If the party chooses not to fight their way through, they come face to face with {{CharLink|Sarevok Anchev}}, along with the Echo of Amelyssan, Echo of Sendai, and Echo of Illasera.

Sarevok states that there is no better mirror in which to see the true nature of a killer than his victim. Thus, he summons the image of one of the murder victims. The spectre cannot speak, as the murderer stole its voice. Thus, the party must speak for it. Sarevok asks how the pitiful creature was slain | Sarevok states that there is no better mirror in which to see the true nature of a killer than his victim.

Sarevok asks how the pitiful creature was slain. | ||
If the party did not kill the victim, they can make a [[Deception]] check to lie and claim they did: | |||
* | * {{Dialogue option|First, I ended its sorry existence. Then I cut the hand from its corpse.|roll=Deception|dc=20}} | ||
* {{Dialogue option|Slowly and painfully. I savoured every scream.|roll=Deception|dc=20}} | |||
* | * {{Dialogue option|With a smile on my face, and pleasure in my heart.|roll=Deception|dc=20}} | ||
* | |||
If the | Dark urge characters get an easier (DC 10) check: | ||
* {{Dialogue option|First, I ended its sorry existence. Then I cut the hand from its corpse.|tags=Dark Urge|roll=Deception|dc=10}} | |||
* {{Dialogue option|Slowly and painfully. I savoured every scream.|tags=Dark Urge|roll=Deception|dc=10}} | |||
* {{Dialogue option|With a smile on my face, and pleasure in my heart.|tags=Dark Urge|roll=Deception|dc=10}} | |||
If the party actually did kill the victim, no Deception check is required. | |||
Selecting any one of these additional options will result in Sarevok and his echoes immediately becoming hostile: | |||
* {{Dialogue option|The deed is done - the details don't matter.}} | |||
* {{Dialogue option|In combat. Honourably.}} | |||
* {{Dialogue option|I didn't kill this person. But I will kill you.}} | |||
Convincing or telling Sarevok how the victim died, Sarevok will lead the party to the Dread Lord's Abattoir, for the next challenge. Inside the abattoir is the hollyphant investigator, Valeria. The party must choose to kill Valeria, becoming a holy assassin of Bhaal, or slay Sarevok. | |||
An additional scene plays if either {{CharLink|Minsc}} or {{CharLink|Jaheira}} is in the party during the tribunal. Sarevok instantly recognizes them and declares them traitors. The party can respond by stating they are sacrifices offered up to Bhaal and kill them, or go through Intimidation or Performance checks to having Jaheira/Minsc kneel before the Tribunal. Doing the latter satisfies Sarevok enough to allow the Tribunal to continue and both Minsc and Jaheira can be baptised as unholy assassins. | An additional scene plays if either {{CharLink|Minsc}} or {{CharLink|Jaheira}} is in the party during the tribunal.
