Where to Find Naoise Nallinto in Baldur's Gate 3

### Visit Sharess' Caress in Act III:

To meet Naoise, you must progress to the early stages of Act III. As you journey towards Baldur's Gate, you'll pass through Wyrm's Crossing. Here, you're tasked with meeting Raphael at Sharess' Caress, a local brothel located on the eastern side of the bridge leading into the city.

If you've previously explored Wyrm's Crossing, you can fast-travel to the South Span of Wyrm's Crossing, which will place you directly at the entrance of Sharess' Caress.

Look for Nymph's Grotto:

Naoise can be found in the Nymph's Grotto, a secluded chamber on the second floor. To access it, pass through the door leading outside; it's marked by a distinctive green light and ivy-covered walls. The door is locked but can be easily opened with a lock-picking roll of 10 or higher.

### Interact with Naoise:

Upon entering the Nymph's Grotto, approach the bed where you'll find Naoise with Jara, a Flaming Heart soldier, in an intimate setting. Jara will be displeased by your intrusion, but as she begins to address you, her tadpole connects with yours, leading to a confrontation about the Absolute. She transforms into a Mindflayer, which you must defeat to proceed.

After defeating Jara, Naoise's attention shifts to you. She expresses an unusual attraction to Mindflayers. To navigate this delicate situation, select the following dialogue options:

• "Whoever you think I am, you're mistaken."

• "Your client is dead. I thought you'd be more upset."

An Insight check will reveal Naoise's readiness for romance. Continue with:

- "That creature aroused you, didn't it?"

Avoid judgmental responses. Naoise indicates an openness to alternative experiences. Proceed with:

• "What did you have in mind?"
• 'Close your eyes and listen'

This unique encounter unfolds entirely within your mind. Naoise prompts you to choose your state of being:

• Revered
• Contented
• Powerful
• Rich
• I think we're done here.

Choosing 'Contented' leads to a brief romantic scene. After the encounter, Naoise will have no further interest in you, stating she can offer 'rapture' only once. Interestingly, this encounter does not affect existing relationships, such as with Karlach, who remains unbothered by it.

Shadowheart will grant you the 'Carnal Rituals of Sharess' inspiration point following the encounter.

Upon successfully romancing Naoise, you'll receive the Rapture boon, granting a passive 1d6 bonus to nearly all ability checks.
