Where to Find Naoise Nallinto in Baldur's Gate 3

### Visit Sharess' Caress in Act III:

To meet and romance 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. Your initial visit here requires a meeting with Raphael at Sharess' Caress, a local brothel situated on the eastern side of the bridge leading into the city.

If you've already explored Wyrm's Crossing, you can fast-travel to the South Span of Wyrm's Crossing, which will take you directly to the front porch of Sharess' Caress.

Look for Nymph's Grotto:

To find Naoise, head to the Nymph's Grotto, a secluded chamber on the second floor, accessible through a door with a green light and ivy-covered walls. The door is locked but can be opened with a successful lock-picking roll of 10 or higher.

### Interact with Naoise:

Upon entering, approach the bed where Naoise is engaged with Jara, a Flaming Heart soldier, in an intimate moment. Your interruption will prompt a tadpole interaction between you and Jara, leading her to question your identity. Choose the following dialogue option:

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

Jara will mention the Absolute before transforming into a Mindflayer, which you must defeat. After the battle, Naoise will turn her attention to you, expressing an unusual attraction to Mindflayers. Select:

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

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

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

Avoid judgmental responses. Naoise will indicate her interest in an alternative experience. Proceed with:

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

This leads to a unique mental romance scene where Naoise asks you to choose your state of being:

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

Choosing 'Contented' will initiate a brief romantic encounter. Once concluded, Naoise will express disinterest in further interactions, mentioning that she can offer 'rapture' only once. Notably, this encounter did not affect our existing relationship with Karlach, and it is likely the same for other romanceable characters.

Shadowheart will reward you with the 'Carnal Rituals of Sharess' inspiration point after the encounter.

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