Xzar and Montaron is a quest in Baldur's Gate. The two invite Gorion's Ward to accompany them south to Nashkel.


Xzar and Montaron wish me to travel to Nashkel.

— Journal: Xzar and Montaron

Note: Tarrying too long with reaching Nashkel will let Xzar and Montaron leave the party!

Synopsis[]

If you invite Montaron and Xzar into your party, they will insist on going to Nashkel as soon as possible. They agree to a quick detour to the Friendly Arm Inn area, but will become increasingly agitated as time passes if you do not go there. They will eventually leave the party if you stray too far from their goal for too long. It is not necessary to complete any quests in Nashkel to get them to stay. Just visiting the area once is enough.

After about 15 or 18 days (see notes) without reaching Nashkel:

Nashkel is where I must go. If ye will not go there yerself, then here is where we part company! Sleep lightly, if ye dare to sleep at all!

— Montaron, as he and Xzar leave the party

Note: The timer may be different, perhaps shorter, if Xzar and Montaron for any reason get separated.

Notes[]

  • Xzar and Montaron will remind the first time about the urgency of going to Nashkel earlier, when during the initial conversation they were asked to first visit the Friendly Arm Inn: after four days the former, six days the latter – rather than seven and nine days, respectively.[1]
  • The quest can only be accepted in chapters 1 or 2, Xzar and Montaron disappear at the start of chapter 3 if they have not been recruited.
