The Bitter End
Race through Motherhorn to rescue Gleam's sister before Endelyn figures out who you are!
Area	Goal		Quests & Cinematics
Endelyn:	Well that performance was certainly something else. I enjoyed the part where it turned out the maiden was cursed in every possible way. I like when the tragedy is inescapable. Just like real life.
Jarlaxle:	I couldn't have said it better myself. We look forward to performing many more terrible plays for you. I mean, tragic plays.
Celeste:	Perhaps we could explore the fortress more. Look for ideas for our next play. It's an impressive and foreboding place.
Endelyn:	That it is. Good for keeping the minions in line and maintaining the tone of future works. I like considering the future. You'd do well to do the same. In fact: consider tonight. I'll have guests this evening, and I'd love to give them another show. Get another play together and I'll be very pleased.
Jarlaxle:	Of course, of course. We'll just absorb the ambience--
Endelyn:	I will look into my Orrery of Tragedies and divine your future. I'm sure there's something very interesting there. Assuming you survive my shadows of course. Once again, delightful play. Look forward to the next one. More inevitable deaths next time. Ta-ta!
1	Defeat 25 Enemies		Endelyn's charmed by your performance, but Motherhorn teems with enemies still. Fight those shadows and darklings!
Celeste:	If she's going to try and divine our futures, we'll need to hurry. It won't take long before she realizes something's up.
Minsc:	Well, when she realizes we are heroes, we can pivot to smashing evil, which is much better than being in a play.
Nat:	[signs] We have to save Gleam's sister first.
Bruenor:	Right. Let's get Gleam and go find Glister.
Nat:	[signs] Do you think the hag can really tell the future?
Celeste:	Divination is a complex magic. Not all things are set. Not all futures can be avoided.
Nat:	[signs] Do you think she could tell us where Jenks and Squiddly are?
Nayeli:	I suspect she could do that without being able to see the future.
Celeste:	I don't need a divination to know we'll save Jenks and Squiddly. Prismeer's magic has kept them from harm, so it's only a matter of figuring out where it sent them. If that takes restoring Zybilna, then we'll do that. And no army of darklings and shadows will change that!
2	Defeat 25 Enemies		What future lies ahead for you? Probably more shadows and darklings from the looks of it!
Jarlaxle:	Celeste, you shouldn't tell the kid everything's going to work out.
Celeste:	She's very worried! I'm just trying to reassure her. And it's true -- we're going to do everything we can to save them.
Jarlaxle:	Which is different from saying you know we'll save them. We don't understand everything in this plane. Bad things happen.
Celeste:	I don't like this defeatist attitude.
Jarlaxle:	And I don't like thinking about Nat feeling like we failed her. Just keep it tempered.
Gleam:	Champions! How did the play go?
Blooshi:	Well, I was amazing.
Jarlaxle:	Murder-Bunny saved our skin and Endelyn bought the ruse. We've got free rein of Motherhorn. Let's go find Glister.
Dottie:	We've been working out the layout of Motherhorn. Break-a-Leg says the prison is this way.
Celeste:	We're likely to encounter more guards. We might need to subdue them. Let's collect these curtain ropes in case we need to tie people up.
3	Collect 25 Curtain Ropes		Sometimes the best answer is tying up your foes. Grab those curtain ropes and be prepared!
4	Defeat 25 Enemies		More shadows creep out of the darkness to attack! Be ready!
Bruenor:	Once we get Glister free, we're gonna need a way out o' here fer ye three at least.
Dottie:	Right now, that's the secret tunnel. We didn't find out another way free of here!
Bruenor:	We can light tha beacons and open tha portal again -- though it ain't gonna be easy if tha hag catches on!
Celeste:	Let's worry about Glister first. We have a lot of shadows to get through before we can free Glister.
5	Defeat the Goblin Shadow Boss		This goblin shadow boss doesn't like the trouble you're causing! Fight past him to get to Glister!
Gleam:	This way! Through the workshop.
Charmay:	...What do you mean 'she loved it'?
Darkling:	What I said! Endelyn loved 'Love Unsoiled.' She wants another play from them! Tonight!
Charmay:	But, but, but...there's a line!
Blooshi:	Hey, Mentor! Sounds like you heard the good news.
Charmay:	Good news? You think you can just waltz in here, some froggy little ingenue, and become Motherhorn's next star?
Blooshi:	Well, I mean it does turn out I'm good at acting AND fighting things. Where are all these shadows coming from anyway?
6	Defeat 25 Enemies		The creatures of the workshop don't care about your success! They want to bring you down!
7	Defeat 25 Enemies		More shadows come after you -- Endelyn might not know your intentions, but Motherhorn is on the alert!
Trinket:	Anybody see a shadow come through here?
Bauble:	Might be carrying a magic spool of thread?
Trinket:	Oh! You people -- how'd you get to Yon so quickly?
Charmay:	You know these...interlopers?
Bauble:	Not your business, thespian.
Trinket:	Yeah, we need thread and shadows, not dumb questions!
8	Collect 25 Spools of Thread		One of these spools of thread is the magical one the darklings stole from Bavlorna! Track it down!
Nat:	[signs] Are any of these the one you're missing?
Bauble:	No. Thanks for trying. Hey no hard feelings about attacking you back in Hither.
Jarlaxle:	I mean some hard feelings.
Bruenor:	Do ye know an easy way ta get out o' Yon? We're gonna need a speedy exit.
Trinket:	I mean...yes? But it will cost you.
Trinket:	Look, our sister Charm's shadow is running loose. It's got to come back and get reattached to Charm, and we need the thread it's carrying for Endelyn. Help us catch the shadow and we'll owe you a lift out of Yon.
Minsc:	That is the simplest of tasks! We were already going to fight all of the shadows!
9	Defeat 25 Enemies		Shadows and darklings fill the workshop, but one of them is the detached shadow of Charm! Find the right one!
Jarlaxle:	How are we supposed to know which of these is your sister's shadow? There's dozens of them!
Bauble:	Um, it's the one that looks exactly like her? How is this not obvious?
Celeste:	That one! It's got a spool of thread.
Bauble:	I'll grab the thread, you all do what you're good at and fight the shadow.
10	Defeat the Charm's Detached Shadow		Charm's detached shadow doesn't want to go with the darklings yet -- it would rather fight you!
Trinket:	Got her! Stop! Fighting! You stupid shadow!
Bauble:	You act like you're never going to get to run free again. Wait for the next job.
Trinket:	Thanks for your help, Champions. When you're ready to get out of here, head to the roof. Our stormcloud balloon will be waiting.
Blooshi:	I'm just saying, if we get another play together, this could be like our THING! We could trick villains by doing amazing plays! And Yorven, I won't second-guess you again. You may not be as tall as Avren, but you definitely have the ability to match me in DRAMA.
Yorven:	I don't know that the opportunity will come up often. How often do you encounter villains who can be distracted by some drama?
Minsc:	More often than you'd think.
Boo:	Squeak!
Minsc:	I am perfectly focused -- Oh! We're in the prison! Which of these cells has your sister Gleam? Is it this one? No! That's all rats and darklings!
11	Defeat 25 Enemies		The prison of Motherhorn is no place to sit still! Fight those darklings and giant rats!
Hurly:	Who are you? What are you doing here? Get out! No actors allowed. Just us bad-tempered, washed-up guards.
Bruenor:	Burly? Is that ye? Where's yer shadow?
Hurly:	Huh? Oh...You've been to the Witchlight Carnival. I'm Hurly. Burly is my brother. My handsome, successful, happy brother.
Nat:	[signs] Burly? The bugbear? The one that wears a pumpkin on his head?
Hurly:	He's got a pumpkin now? Well, la-di-da! Everything's coming up Burly, as usual.
Glister:	Gleam? Is that you?
Gleam:	Glister! We're here to rescue you!
Hurly:	Like that's going to do you any good. You'll never get out of here. It's impossible. You'll just get caught again.
Minsc:	We've done far more difficult things than this!
Hurly:	And this is where you ended up? I hate to see what's next.
12	Defeat 25 Enemies		Deep beneath Endelyn's fortress, her prison teems with enemies! Battle them back!
Celeste:	We've arranged for a ride out of Motherhorn. We just have to get you out of here and up to the roof.
Glister:	Oh are we taking the giant cranes?
Bruenor:	Tha what?
Glister:	The giant cranes that fly between here and the Palace of Heart's Desire where Zybilna used to rule from? I heard you ring a silver bell on the roof and they still come.
Celeste:	That is...good to know. We've got a balloon. Here, let's find the key to your cell and get you out of here.
13	Collect 25 Keys		One of these keys will unlock Glister's cell! Gather them up!
Nat:	[signs] Found it!
Celeste:	Thank you, Nat! Glister let's get you free and get out of here.
Glister:	Thank you! Thank you! I'm so happy to see you, Gleam!
Hurly:	Ugh, spare me your performative sibling relationship!
Hurly's Detached Shadow:	No, no, keep making him frustrated. It's hilarious!
Bruenor:	Yer shadow's been stolen too.
Hurly:	[sigh] No. I snipped it off with Endelyn's enchanted scissors. Everyone says I'm too angry and grim to be a great actor. I thought maybe it would lighten me up. But instead --
Hurly's Detached Shadow:	He's my straight man! I set 'em up, he takes the fall!
Hurly:	He means he insults me and I get mad.
Hurly's Detached Shadow:	It's a better act than anything you've ever done!
14	Defeat 25 Enemies		Goblins swarm the prison trying to stop your rescue! Defeat them!
Hurly:	I regret ever cutting you free!
Hurly's Detached Shadow:	If that's all you regret, then you're not paying enough attention!
Jarlaxle:	All right, well you two have fun with your terrible act, we have a balloon to meet.
Hurly's Detached Shadow:	Not so fast! Endelyn will give us top billing if I turn you in -- and we're not getting that with this mopefest alone. Get into those cells or I'll show you how dangerous a shadow can be!
Hurly:	Ugh! Just smash him and be done with it. I can't believe I ever thought you were a good idea.
15	Defeat the Hurly's Detached Shadow		Oh no! Hurly's detached shadow is even more unpleasant than its owner! Stand your ground!
Hurly:	Well NOW what am I supposed to do?
Celeste:	Do you want to go home to the Witchlight Carnival?
Hurly:	And listen to them go 'I told you so!' No thanks!
Nat:	[signs] Maybe you just need to think about what your strengths and weaknesses are. What you like doing.
Hurly:	Ugh! You sound like Mr. Witch and Mr. Light.
Jarlaxle:	All right, well, we'll leave you to your griping. Take care or....don't. Whatever.
Celeste:	There's the stormcloud balloon!
Nat:	[signs] What is that thing? That mechanical bird thing?
Glister:	That's Endelyn's ornithopter! It's what she flies on when she leaves Motherhorn!
Jarlaxle:	And look what's next to it.
Nat:	[signs] That's Bavlorna's lilypad! And Skabatha's rocking horse! Are all the hags here?
Bruenor:	Not only that, but there's a whole lot o' goblins and ravens between us and tha balloon! Look alive!
16	Defeat 25 Enemies		You're outside at last but so are the goblins and ravens! Weapons up!
17	Defeat 25 Enemies		The scavengers are coming for their due! Fight the goblins and vultures!
Charm:	Well, well, well -- look who made it. We were just about to take off.
Celeste:	How long have those other vehicles been here?
Charm:	Bavlorna and Skabatha's rides? Maybe an hour. When the last play finished.
Minsc:	They're all still here. We could defeat the whole coven now!
Charm:	Not before we launch. We're not waiting around for whatever those three are cooking up. It's time to set up shop somewhere else. Speaking of, could you gather those ornithopter gears? They don't look nailed down, and there's quite a market in Loomlurch for spare gears.
18	Collect 25 Ornithopter Gears		The darkling merchants want those gears to sell! The vultures and ravens want them because they're shiny!
19	Defeat 25 Enemies		Uh-oh, the coven's all here! What are you going to do? Well right now, you're going to fight!
Celeste:	If all three hags are here...
Jarlaxle:	I'm pretty sure at this point our ruse is up. Bavlorna and Skabatha have almost certainly told their sister about the band of adventurers who made a mess of their plans.
Blooshi:	Perfect! Let's get out of here and make it three for three!
Minsc:	No! We can't leave evil to grow more powerful! We should strike now while our enemies are clustered.
Celeste:	I think Minsc is right. We can't save Prismeer if we don't defeat the Hourglass Coven.
Dottie:	Look out! All your arguing has attracted a roc! You're really between a roc and a hard place now! Heehee!
20	Defeat the Roc		A roc swoops down out of the mountain peaks to attack! Fight that giant bird!
Charm:	Well? What are you waiting for? Climb in!
Celeste:	I don't think our work here is done. All three hags are here. We might not get another chance to take them down. Gleam, Glister, Dottie --
Gleam:	We'll stay with you.
Glister:	We want to see Endelyn defeated and Prismeer restored too!
Charm:	Weird choice, but all right. Try not to die, Champions!
Star:	[indicates] Wow! What is this place?
Glister:	This must be Endelyn's Orrery of Tragedies. This is where she reads the futures of visitors.
Blooshi:	Ooh! I want to see my future! Am I a glamorous evil overlord or a popular actress in weirdly compelling tragic plays?
Glister:	...They're ALWAYS bad. It's more likely you're trapped in a demiplane or hunted by a fiend for all eternity.
Blooshi:	Oh ew.
Bruenor:	Or attacked by goblins? Look out!
21	Defeat 25 Enemies		The Orrery of Tragedies turns in its endless cycle, while goblins and ravens seek to bring tragedy to you!
Goblin Butcher:	You! What are you doing up here?
Jarlaxle:	Excuse me? We're Endelyn's favorite acting troupe and we're doing research --
Goblin Butcher:	You're a bunch of adventurers and you're mucking around in the orrery! Get them!
22	Defeat 25 Enemies		Darklings and goblin shadows that serve Bitter End surge toward you! Hold your ground!
Nat:	[signs] Minsc, the flashing inside my egg is getting brighter. I hope it doesn't hatch before we can leave Yon!
Minsc:	Well...if it does...I think you need blankets and boiling water. Or maybe salt and pepper and cheese for eggs. I'm not sure.
Nat:	[signs] Do you think it's going to be weird? Blooshi thought it might hatch all weird because of the magic in Hither, Thither, and Yon.
Minsc:	Would you feel different if it were different?
Nat:	[signs] No! It's MY crocodile and it's going to be amazing! I just hope I didn't accidentally make it evil taking it through all these realms of hags. Hmm...I wonder if one of these books of predictions can tell me what will happen!
Minsc:	Can't hurt to find out!
23	Collect 25 Prophecies		The tragic prophecies of Endelyn Moongrave fill the shelves. See if you can get a glimpse of the future by collecting them up!
Minsc:	What's this one say? 'The treachery we three have wrought, would Iggwilv forgive us? Ha! I think not.' Who's Iggwilv, and why does her name sound like it's backwards?
Blooshi:	What are you two doing?
Nat:	[signs] Reading tragic prophecies. This one says 'All I've wrought will be undone, when the moon blots out the sun.' That's strange. They both sound like they're about the person writing. Which would be Endelyn.
Blooshi:	This one's really long: 'Time was our ally, standing beside us. Giving us that which Mummy denied us. But now I feel its hands turn cold, and see its second sight unfold. The hourglass broken, the sisters three, meeting our hellish destiny. Bav and Skab will never know, that Time has always been our foe.'
Minsc:	Ominous.
Blooshi:	I think it means we have to hit them with a clock!
24	Defeat 25 Enemies		The minions of Endelyn Moongrave seek to stop you here and now! Carve a path through them!
Goblin Butcher:	You'll go no further, Champions. Your fate ends here!
Jarlaxle:	Better goblins than you have tried!
25	Defeat the Goblin Butcher		This goblin butcher means business! Dodge that cleaver!
Nayeli:	Come on! These stairs lead down into the theater. We'll be able to ask around and find out where they've gone from there.
Charmay:	YOU!
Blooshi:	Charmay! Did you see our performance? Wasn't it amazing?
Charmay:	Oh drop the act. You're not actors -- you're adventurers! Everyone's talking about it. This was all a ploy to get past Endelyn!
Blooshi:	I mean, I was still pretty good. And Yorven.
Jarlaxle:	You've caught us. Guess you have to go back to being the superstar around here.
Charmay:	Excuse me, are you implying that you somehow deposed me, even temporarily? Thespians! Get them!
26	Defeat 25 Enemies		Your goal to defeat the Hourglass Coven might disrupt the theater scene -- but these angry thespians and goblins might disrupt your continued existence! Stand firm!
27	Defeat 25 Enemies		These thespians and wigged rats don't want you to succeed against the coven -- who will produce their plays if you do!
Jarlaxle:	Hold on. If this isn't about us being more popular performers than you --
Charmay:	You were NEVER more popular than me! Look at all these playbills! Look at them! I'm highly sought after! I'm offer-only!
28	Collect 25 Playbills		Is Charmay's career really on the line? Collect those playbills and figure out what she's dealing with.
Charmay:	You're here to thwart Endelyn! Admit it!
Jarlaxle:	Fine. She's a villain and she's in our way. We're in the business of thwarting that.
Charmay:	Which means you're here to destroy my career! And I'm not going back to Kelek and the League of Malevolence!
Blooshi:	You're from the League of Malevolence? We've met some of your friends!
Charmay:	They're not my friends! They're jerks! Who don't appreciate me or my incredible powers OR my dramatic sense of timing and I'm THROUGH traipsing after Kelek looking for stupid unicorn horns! Why does he even HAVE that obsession? It's ludicrous!
Celeste:	Surely there's something you can do that isn't performing for the hag or becoming a villain again? Could you not join a touring troupe? Act in plays that aren't in Prismeer?
Charmay:	I WOULDN'T HAVE TO EVEN THINK ABOUT THIS IF IT WEREN'T FOR YOU! You've ruined everything!
29	Defeat 25 Enemies		The theater is ruthless, but you have villains to stop and fey domains to save!
Celeste:	You don't have to be an actor OR a villain! Your friend...I mean...'jerk colleague,' Warduke went off with one of Valor's Call! He's going to try being a hero. That...might go well?
Charmay:	Warduke left the League of Malevolence? Are you serious?
Jarlaxle:	He got beaten up by some children and had a crisis of self-confidence.
Charmay:	Oh this is hilarious! Kelek let Warduke get away so even if he FINDS the cauldron, he can't destroy it without Warduke's sword! What a bunch of idiots! ...Although if I came back now, they'd HAVE to appreciate me. What with Warduke gone...
Celeste:	What cauldron? What are they doing?
Charmay:	Uh-uh -- I might have new options but helping you still isn't one of them. I'll show you what Kelek let get away!
30	Defeat the Charmay		Charmay was once a member of the League of Malevolence, like Warduke and Zarak the assassin from the lake! That means she probably knows how to fight! Watch out!
Jarlaxle:	Should we worry about her fleeing?
Minsc:	Nah, I'm sure she will come back later and sort things out. Let's find those hags and get to evil smiting!
Nayeli:	Look! There they are.
Endelyn:	They did WHAT to your looms?
Skabatha:	Honey! And mimic glue! And they ran off with all my captured children. Honestly the whole place is a disaster and I won't make quota.
Bavlorna:	Idiot! What quota? You're your own boss and no one wants your toys.
Skabatha:	Well, nobody cares about your bullywug rebellion either! You asked for this when you set up ruling a bunch of squabbling frogs.
Endelyn:	Sisters, shush! We have a very big problem on our hands and we need to sort it out. Fortunately, I have a plan.
31	Defeat 25 Enemies		Oh no! Bavlorna's lornlings and Endelyn's rats have spotted you! Fight them -- but quietly so you can keep eavesdropping!
Celeste:	Everyone stay quiet. We need to hear their plan before we attack.
Skabatha:	Is this about that snotty little warlock and her friends?
Endelyn:	No, no. Kelek and the League of Malevolence absolutely think they're going to betray us now. Fortunately, they're still trapped in the palace and they have no idea how to use the cauldron. It's right in front of them! And they can't make it work! Delicious!
Bavlorna:	You and your dramatic irony.
Jarlaxle:	Look out! More of Bavlorna's minions!
32	Defeat 25 Enemies		Fighting quietly isn't easy -- but you're getting better! Take out these minions of Bavlorna!
Endelyn:	Shut up you two and listen to me! Those champions have gotten the best of both of you. But they don't know how to get to the Palace of Heart's Desire. And there are no guides left. We head there, we regroup and we come back after and clean up this mess.
Skabatha:	I'm with Lyn. Adventurers always find their limits eventually. Come on, Bav.
Bavlorna:	Fine. But I'm calling dibs on the fountain. My skin's already drying out.
Celeste:	We should follow them.
Glister:	The cranes! If we ring the bell up on the ornithopter pad, the giant cranes can take us to the palace!
Lornling:	Hmm, conspiracy! Reporting this!
33	Collect 25 Lornling Notepads		Those lornlings have been taking notes about your activities! Don't let them turn you in! Get their notepads!
Lornling:	Help! Help! Intruders!
Jarlaxle:	Quick! Shut them up before the hags come back!
34	Defeat 25 Enemies		Shush! If these lornlings and taxidermy animals get Bavlorna's attention, you're in for a big fight!
Bavlorna:	Lornlings! Come on, or you're getting replaced!
Bruenor:	Quick! Hide behind that scenery!
Bavlorna:	Is that you, Champions? Hiding for your safety I see! Hahaha! Well maybe I'll just show Skab and Lyn up and take care of you myself!
Bavlorna:	You riled up my bullywugs! You stole my skull and my cursed thread!
Jarlaxle:	Technically that wasn't us!
Blooshi:	Yeah! And Skull Guy chose to come with me! I think. He doesn't talk a lot.
Bavlorna:	You dried me out like beef jerky with that pinwheel! You're going to get what you've earned!
35	Defeat the Bavlorna		Bavlorna Blightstraw isn't falling for your tricks again! Battle the first hag of the Hourglass Coven!
Bavlorna:	Urgh! I won't forget this! I'll regroup and bring the worst to bear against you!
Celeste:	We can catch up to her at the Palace of Heart's Desire. Quick! We need to find that bell!
36	Defeat 25 Enemies		Oh no! You're in the middle of Skabatha's army! Fight your way through without attracting too much attention!
Glister:	The cranes land up on the roof. We need to get back up there.
Celeste:	If we're not careful, we're going to end up fighting another hag.
Boo:	Squeak!
Minsc:	Boo is right! Was that not our goal in the first place? I say we charge ahead and find the next hag!
Bruenor:	I'm all fer it, lad, but first we gotta get through these minions! And they seem angry!
37	Defeat 25 Enemies		These tin soldiers and boggles still seem angry for the havoc you wreaked in Loomlurch! Stand your ground!
38	Collect 25 Tin Helmets		Those tin helmets will provide some protection. Collect them up!
Skabatha:	Hey! Lorna! Can you throw some of my redcaps on your lilypad? I don't have room!
Minsc:	Skabatha Nightshade! Stand and fight!
Skabatha:	Oh, great, the adventurers caught up! Take care of this minions!
39	Defeat 25 Enemies		The minions of Thither seek to pin you down on this stage and prevent your escape! Don't let them!
Skabatha:	Endelyn thinks she has the best plans, but did it occur to her that you were here listening? No!
Jarlaxle:	Did it occur to you?
Skabatha:	Listen, funny boy, I don't have to put up with this! You were lucky last time, and bolstered by a whole bunch of obnoxious children! I'll take you down right here! I don't need to regroup!
40	Defeat the Skabatha		Skabatha is more than ready for another fight! Don't let Granny Nightshade defeat you!
Skabatha:	Arrgh! I've had enough of this! Sit here and rot! I'll be back from the palace as soon as you stop expecting me!
Minsc:	Then we will never stop expecting you! Oh...she left.
Yorven:	Let her. We know where they're headed and we know how to get there. Revenge may be delayed but it will be sweeter for the waiting.
Jarlaxle:	Ugh, do you listen to yourself? Come on, Drama-Bunny, let's get moving.
Glister:	This is the belfry!
Star:	[indicates] Birds!
Nat:	[signs] Why are there so many birds in the belfry? I thought that was supposed to be bats.
Dottie:	These are messenger birds! And also some bird messages! She must send out her letters from here!
Celeste:	Get down! They're diving!
41	Defeat 25 Enemies		This hidden belfry is full of messenger birds -- and you don't have anything for them! Protect yourselves!
42	Defeat 25 Enemies		Paper birds and falcons dive out of the air toward you! Cut them down!
Nayeli:	We need to find the bell in here. It's got to be somewhere!
Celeste:	There are almost too many paper birds to see!
Jarlaxle:	Say...if these are messages in the form of birds...maybe there's something interesting -- I mean, useful in them!
Celeste:	Jarlaxle, are you planning to read someone's private correspondence?
Jarlaxle:	Of course not. Just...look over there for a minute.
43	Collect 25 Folded Letters		These messages might contain some information about what you're heading into! See what you can find!
Blooshi:	Ooh, this one's juicy: 'My darling Bav, Skab had the horn but either lost it or forgot where she hid it. Her head is so full of cobwebs. Imagine what she'll be like when she's senile. Your favorite sister, End.'
Nayeli:	The unicorn horn? Why are they tracking that?
Jarlaxle:	Immense magical power? This one's interesting. 'Lord Kelek, Your missing colleague, Skylla, has been my guest for some time, but I'm afraid she has worn out her welcome. In exchange for my generosity, I'm hoping you can take her off my hands.'
Celeste:	Didn't that goblin call Charmay 'Skylla' before?
Jarlaxle:	I thought you didn't want to be involved in this.
Celeste:	Stop being smug and let me see the letter!
Celeste:	It sounds like the League of Malevolence are holed up in the Palace of Heart's Desire and they and the hags are using each other. But what for? To keep Zybilna away from Prismeer? And why do they want the unicorn horn?
Bruenor:	Look fer that bell, and we can go ta tha Palace and find out ourselves!
44	Defeat 25 Enemies		More death from the sky! Take these birds out!
Yorven:	Found it! I'll just jump up and --
Blooshi:	Ow! That's loud!
Jarlaxle:	Show off.
Yorven:	Am I? How high can you jump?
Jarlaxle:	...We should head out to the platform to see if we can spot those cranes.
Bruenor:	Hold up, drow! We've got company! A construct sparrow!
45	Defeat the Mechanical Sparrow		Ring that bell before Endelyn's mechanical sparrow pecks your eyes out!
Nat:	[signs] The cranes! They're here!
Celeste:	My goodness, they're gigantic!
Jarlaxle:	Marvel from up on top, we need to get moving!
Dottie:	Whee! We're flying!
Celeste:	Look! Up ahead! Is that Endelyn's ornithopter?
Nayeli:	Taking off and leaving her sisters behind. What a coven.
Minsc:	We can catch her if we keep our speed up!
Jarlaxle:	Yeah, those flying monkeys jumping off the back don't bode well for that! Look alive!
46	Defeat 25 Enemies		You're up so high, but the enemies keep coming! Fight among the clouds!
Endelyn:	Well, Champions, we meet properly at last...and for the last time! If you think I'm letting you get to the cauldron, you've got another thing coming!
Minsc:	What cauldron?
Nayeli:	Minsc, shush!
Endelyn:	Have some paper birds to keep you busy!
47	Defeat 25 Enemies		Endelyn has minions to spare, even up here! Hold the giant cranes back against them!
Celeste:	What did Break-a-Leg say Endelyn's weakness was?
Jarlaxle:	An eclipse. Fat lot of good that does us!
Celeste:	An eclipse? Like a selenelion eclipse!
Gleam:	Oh! That's us! The Selenelion Twins.
Glister:	An eclipse at moonset, in symbol at least. Is that why she kept us separated?
Celeste:	It's worth a try! We'll pluck these falcons while you get into position.
48	Collect 25 Falcon Feathers		Those falcons keep attacking, but their feathers would make nice fletching! Collect some falcon feathers!
49	Defeat 25 Enemies		More enemies threaten to send you plummeting into the mists! Fight back!
Endelyn:	I suppose we're doing this. How tragic: you had the chance to run away and survive and instead you chose foolhardy goodness!
Minsc:	I will ALWAYS choose foolhardy goodness over evil! And sometimes just foolhardiness!
Celeste:	What's so special about the cauldron?
Endelyn:	If you have to ask, you'll never know! Hold on tight, Champions! It's a long way to fall and there aren't that many cranes to catch you!
50	Defeat the Endelyn Moongrave		Endelyn and her contraptions are the greatest threat in the skies! The giant cranes can save you if you fall -- but then you can't fight!
Gleam:	Presenting!
Glister:	The acrobatic prowess of the Selenelion Twins! I am the sun, lifting the moon --
Gleam:	-- Right in front of her! How do you like that!
Endelyn:	Curses! An eclipse! Bah! This isn't over! You won't take Prismeer! You won't free Zybilna!
Celeste:	After that ornithopter!
