The Lost

The Lost is a side quest that can be encountered in Baldur's Gate: Siege of Dragonspear.
== Acquisition ==
This quest can be unlocked either by exploring the Ettin Ghost Cave and speaking to the ghosts present there or by warning from Murs if she is championed during Murs and the Brigands.
== Background ==
During the battle for Dragonspear Castle, a band of adventurers fled into the underground where in the darkness they made their way to a cavern of glowing fungus. Unfortunately it was already inhabited by an Ettin, and during the ensuing fight, both sides died and now no one can rest.
== Walkthrough ==
After entering the cave and slaughtering five Shadows, one Wraith, one Greater Shadow, and one Unsleeping Guardian . A trio of ghost will appear, ready for attack, and unless the party leader has at least 10 Charisma, is a Cleric or Shaman, or M'Khiin is in the party, they attempt to slay the party in their confusion.
Otherwise, the ghosts will ask for help to find their way to the afterlife by taking their remains, which are scattered around the cave, and throwing them into a portal to the Fugue Plane. The appropriate portal can be found in Kanaglym; interacting with it once all enemies have been defeated will cause the remains to be thrown through and the party will be rewarded with experience.
=== The Ettin ===
Additionally, if the Ettin Ghost in the Underground River hasn't been killed, once the quest is started, fighting it will trigger a conversation. If the party has one of the same qualifications as the previous encounter, it can lead to learning that the ettin cannot leave until it finds its heirloom club, which can be found back in the cave on the newly-unlocked ettin skeleton.
Returning the club will cause it to peacefully leave and award and the Cloak of the Strange Beast. Alternatively, after the club has been retrieved, the Ettin Ghost can be slain for and the cloak can be looted from its dead body.
