Whispering Statue

A Whispering Statue is a kind of environmental object in Baldur's Gate 3.

Involvement

Whispering Statues are only located in the Undercity Ruins and can be seen when climbing down the stairs from the ambush towards the Bhaal Temple. When a party member approaches a statue the first time, it recites a line from  Alaundo's Bhaalspawn prophecy.

• "The Lord of Murder shall perish..."
• "...but in his doom he shall spawn a score of mortal progeny"
• "Chaos will be sewn from their passage..."
• "So sayeth the wise Alaundo"

After the prophecy has been told those statues which are approached a second time recite the following line.

• "But Alaundo did not see. He did not know. He did not revel in the glory of what is to come."

Audience of One

One of the whispering statues stands next to the murder scene, of which the corpse of  Wilting Alex is a part. Unlike all other statues which have a regular brazier which can be lit, this one has a brazier called Audience of One, which triggers a special line.

• "By now you've seen a lot of death, but this is mass murder staged as theatre for an audience of one: Bhaal."
