If Baelen was given the Noblestalk previously, he will be instead be found alone at his shop, saying that Derryth had run off one night, fearing his wrath for using him. However, seeing as how there are Absolutists in the city and [[Investigate the Murders|a murderer]] terrorizing the citizenry, there isn't much for him to complain about as he has not had any unfortunate run-ins with them so far. He even goes as far to joke that, with any luck, the trouble will end up finding Derryth instead. Should the party condemn him, he'll state that it's what he does to make ends meet, assuming that the party has likewise not been able to get to Baldur's Gate without getting their hands dirty. In this iteration, Derryth's journal will instead talk about how she regrets how the years she's spent suffering under her husband had hardened her heart and made her as cold as Baelen was. And while she has been able to put up with him in the past, the simple return of Baelen's old self has killed her spirit more than any of his past abuse ever did, so she has resolved to leave him. | If Baelen was given the Noblestalk previously, he will be instead be found alone at his shop, saying that Derryth had run off one night, fearing his wrath for using him.

Should Baelen not survive his Underdark expedition, Derryth will be found alone at Bonecloak's. While she's outwardly as abrasive as ever, she will turn melancholy when thinking of her late husband, stating that they both deserved better than how their lives turned out. She'll reckon that Baelen's soul found its way to [https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/City_of_Judgment The City of Judgement], wasting away unclaimed as a faithless | Should Baelen not survive his Underdark expedition, Derryth will be found alone at Bonecloak's.
