Involvement

Act Two

Nimble can be encountered in a cell in Moonrise Towers Prison, together with  Nickels and  Wulbren Bongle. If she escapes, she can be directed or escorted to Last Light Inn.

If not freed from Moonrise Towers before the dealing with the  Nightsong, her corpse can be found in the Oubliette together with those of all the other prisoners.

Act Three

If entering Wyrm's Crossing from South Span Checkpoint, the party must pay a fine and submit to a scan from the Steel Watcher there. If attacking or (after the scan) submitting to imprisonment, Nimble and  Laridda (if alive) run past and lob a  Flashblinder grenade at the Watcher. They then flee to Angleiron's Cellar via the alternative entrance on the western side of the crossing.

Nimble and Laridda can later be encountered at Angleiron's Cellar, accessible through a rock opening near South Span Checkpoint.

Idle banter

While in a cell in Moonrise Towers Prison, Wulbren, Nickels and Nimble discuss their predicament.

• Nickels

  The stone - I feel it. Hollow behind the back wall, and beyond... water?

• Wulbren Bongle

  I'd bet my last copper there's a pier nearby.

• Nimble

  This could be our chance, sir.

• Nimble

  We should leave - and soon.

• Wulbren Bongle

  That is the plan, Nickels.

• Nickels

  There's something evil here. Below, down, down... argh!

• Nimble

  Breathe - I've got you.

• Wulbren Bongle

  Unless this 'evil' can get us out of here, I don't want to hear about it.

• Wulbren Bongle

  It's only a matter of time 'til we're served up to the necromancer on a platter.

• Nimble

  We'll get you to Baldur's Gate, sir - I swear it.

• Wulbren Bongle

  Damn straight - without me everything will be for naught. The Ironhand Gnomes must succeed.

While in a cell in Moonrise Towers Prison, Nimble and Nickels have a chat together.

• Nimble

  You need to eat before we head off, all right?

• Nickels

  Yes.

• Nimble

  Do you have anything to eat?

• Nickels

  No.

• Nimble

  Where did I leave that damn hammer?

• Nickels

  The stone says it is one floor down to the left.

• Nimble

  Hah - thanks Nickels. And the stone.

• Nickels

  You are welcome.

• Nimble

  I'll sort you out for dinner. How does the stone read?

• Nickels

  The way is clear - the light has shown the way.

• Nimble

  Good. The sooner we get out of here the better.
