How To Get Minthara Out Of Moonrise Towers

Rescuing Minthara from the depths of Moonrise Towers is one of the most pivotal companion quests in Baldur's Gate 3. After facing judgment in the main throne room, she is sent to the prison cells below, requiring a careful extraction strategy to secure her freedom without alerting the entire fortress.

Locating Minthara in the Moonrise Dungeon

Upon arriving at Moonrise Towers during Act 2, players witness Minthara being judged by Ketheric Thorm. Following the audience, guard tormentors take her down to the prison level for deep mind interrogation.

To reach her, descend the stairs into the lower dungeon area where two questioners are attempting to break her will. Intervening immediately allows you to convince or defeat the interrogators before taking control of her movement.

Stealth Strategies and Invisibility Options

Extracting Minthara quietly avoids drawing the wrath of the rest of the Cult of the Absolute inside the fortress. Casting an Invisibility spell or using an Invisibility Potion on Minthara allows her to walk past patrolling guards undetected.

Alternatively, keeping her grouped closely with a respected True Soul character can help you pass Deception or Persuasion skill checks if questioned by guards. Slipping through the side doors toward the docks minimizes contact with heavy patrols on the main floor.

Escaping via the Docks and Prison Boats

For players who prefer a clean exit, utilizing the prison's hidden boat system provides a smooth getaway route. You can defeat the nearby guards and Scrying Eyes quietly in turn-based mode before escorting her to the dock area.

Taking the boat allows Minthara to safely flee the danger zone without triggering alarm bells across the main floors. Once you cross the perimeter boundary, a dialogue triggers where she thanks you and retreats to your campsite.

Securing Her as a Permanent Party Companion

After successfully escaping Moonrise Towers, Minthara establishes her camp tent and becomes fully available as a Paladin companion. It is important to note that bringing her back inside Moonrise Towers before the final siege may trigger immediate hostility from remaining guards.

Keeping her safely in camp during subsequent investigations in the Shadow-Cursed Lands ensures your cover remains intact. Once recruited, her unique combat abilities and deep insight into the Absolute's leadership prove invaluable for the challenges ahead.
