Best thing about this is when you attack Elminster, he's actually just a construct. So he didn't even bother to turn up personally.

What's even better is they're Eskimo bros! Elminster and Mystra used to get it on too.

The thing about it is, his isn't even the most uninteresting storyline. His whole and only deal is literally "guy who can't get over his abusive ex" and it's still more riveting than whatever they did to Wyll.

For real, though, if the Elminster in this scene is illusory (and it is), where did my food go?

It's not an illusion, it's a simulacrum. It's a material copy of the real thing so he totally actually ate your food even though he totally didn't need to.

You don't understand, it was part of the Karsite cheese. Had he not eaten it, it would have eaten you!

I mean, I thought Wyll's sorry line was cool. I did think he was a little boring as a parson though. I guess compared to the other companions he's just too safe feeling. But I liked his story with Mizzora, and I found the ending with his father gratifying.

Where is his bed? Is it safe?

Well... It's not inaccurate.

Gandalf is in BG3? Dang! Now I'm really sad that I never found Gale. I'm about to finish the game, so it's definitely too late to go back and find him.

That's clearly gandalf the Gray
