Baldur’s Gate 3: Where To Find Arabella’s Parents In Shadow Cursed Lands

The Tiefling child Arabella is all alone in the Shadow Cursed Lands, and it is your duty to locate her parents by entering a house full of madness.

Arabella is a mischievous child who has a knack for finding herself in trouble repeatedly. She is a Tiefling NPC whom you will first encounter during Act 1 at the Druid Grove, where snakes torment her for stealing the idol. If you help her there, you will meet her again during Act 2 in the Shadow Cursed Lands. This time, Arabella will look for her missing parents in Baldur’s Gate 3.

Now, it is up to you to end Arabella’s hardships by helping her return to her parents.

Where to find Arabella in Act 2

You will find Arabella in the Shadow Cursed Lands during Act 2 of Baldur’s Gate 3, where she will be waiting alone, looking for her parents. Go to the graveyard entrance in Reithwin Town, north of the town square, and climb the stairs to find Arabella standing at the top. 

You can also reach Arabella by moving west of Mason’s Guild or east from the House of Healing. However, before venturing into the Shadow Cursed Lands to help this little girl, remember that a curse has befallen this land, and you will need special items (Pixie’s Blessing, Moonlantern) to navigate the region.

Once you spot Arabella, you will learn she has special powers to help her navigate the land. Arabella will trust you now since you helped her earlier in Act 1 from the snake’s torment. You can tell her that you will look after her parents and send her back to the campsite. This will start the Find Arabella’s Parents quest in Baldur’s Gate 3.

Arabella Parents’ location

Now you must head to the House of Healing to find Arabella’s parents. This hospital is just west of the Graveyard’s entrance, where you found Arabella.

From the main entrance, go through the right door and meet Sister Lidwin there, looking after two Tiefling patients. These two will be Locke and Komira, Arabella’s parents. Unfortunately, they will already be dead when you get there. There is no way you can save them or bring them back to life. However, you can use the Talk with the Dead spell to learn more about their dreadful fate.

Return to Arabella in the camp and break the sad news of her parent’s death to her. When you do so, she will be visibly upset and ask you to leave. Take a long rest and talk to Arabella again. She will be standing near Withers, discussing her future.

TIP

There is no advantage to keeping the information from Arabella. We recommend that you tell her about what happened to her parents.

This time she will be calm and reward you with Arabella’s Shadow Entangle spell and Shadow Blade Ring for helping her find her parents. You will also be rewarded with approval from Astarion, Shadowheart, Gale, and Wyll when you tell Arabella about her dead parents in Baldur’s Gate 3.
