Follow this Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn walkthrough to complete Cernd's personal quest, from his wife's mysterious death to reuniting with his son.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Return to Athkatla after the Trademeet crises. Igarol will confront Cernd about abandoning his pregnant wife.
  2. 2
    Go to Cernd's Former Home in Waukeen's Promenade, now occupied by Catis.
  3. 3
    Ask Catis about the lady of the house. She will direct you to Fennecia, the former maid.
  4. 4
    Find Fennecia's Home on the top tier of Waukeen's Promenade. She will scornfully tell Cernd that his wife, Galia, is dead but offer no further details to him.
  5. 5
    Have Cernd leave, then speak to Fennecia with your main character. She will reveal Galia took up with a noble named Deril and died under mysterious circumstances after giving birth. She directs you to Deril's estate in the Government District.
  6. 6
    Rejoin Cernd and go to the Deril Estate in the southern Government District. Buff your party before entering.
  7. 7
    Inside, a Golem named Glut will inform you that Deril is not home, prompting Cernd to become more determined.
  8. 8
    Glut will fetch Deril, leading to fatal consequences for Glut. Deril will then appear.
  9. 9
    To gain more XP, tell Cernd to accuse Deril of murder. Deril will respond with unpleasant taunts.
  10. 10
    Tell Cernd you have his back. Deril will invite his guest, a Lich named Lagole Gun, to witness before attacking. For even more XP, you can attack Lagole Gun as well. Deril and Lagole Gun together are worth 52000 XP.
  11. 11
    Take any irreplaceable items from Cernd, as he will leave your party.
  12. 12
    If you did not fight Lagole Gun, he will give you Cernd's baby and teleport away. Otherwise, retrieve the baby from the floor.
  13. 13
    Cernd will name the child and take him to the Druid Grove to be raised.
