Neverwinter Nights: Hordes of the Underdark Hints

Illithid Allies of the Valsharess

  • 1 of 4: Talk to Nathyrra right after Chapter 2 starts to get this quest.
  • 2 of 4: Illithids are mind flayers, and would be very powerful allies for the Valsharess to have. You need to visit their nearby city of Zorvak'Mur (accessed via the "West of Lith My'athar" region) and talk their Elder Brain into betraying the Valsharess.
  • 3 of 4: See the hint section "The Illithid Alliance" for all the answers you need.
  • 4 of 4: After the Elder Brain has agreed to convince all the others in the Elder Concorde to betray the Valsharess, report to the Seer to finish up.
