Tap for spoilerI'm on a resist durge run, and I'm wondering if I could still trigger the "kill your lover" scene after how handled the quest for Isobel.

The way I progressed after entering the shadow cursed lands was:

  • fought the shadows that ambushed the harper patrol and cursed yonas
  • Made my way to last light in, had the cutscene where Jaheira suspects you're a cultist and tries to kill you.
  • after getting her trust I talked with her inside the inn, refused to drink the wine.
  • I took a long rest before talking to Isobel
  • I talked to Isobel immediately after the long rest, then beat Marcus and the winged horrors.
  • at the next long rest, I got the quest to kill Isobel from Sceleritas. I told him something like "I'll consider it"
  • I then talked to Isobel, told her about the urge, then chose not to kill her in the dialogue.
  • the quest still hasn't shown up as me having failed to kill her, even after plenty of long rests.

Can I still get the "kill your lover" scene after how I progressed, or did I lock myself out of it? I should note, I have entered moonrise towers by now, but I did take plenty of long rests before then

I know. The scene triggers once you fail the quest, which is once you lift the shadow curse. You haven't gotten the scene because you haven't failed the quest. Be patient.
