If they are not in alliance of the absolute they clearly know about its intentions, as the one questioned by ragzlin was on the ship
i don't remember that convo .. could you say what happened when he was interrogated?
It was part of the Goblin Quest. I just finished this, and Ragzlin was the final boss (for me). He casts Speak With Dead on the mind flayer who's head you supposedly stomped in when you encountered it at the wreckage and it tried to make you "fall in love" with it. Personally, I have no clue how that could be the exact same mind flayer, since it's implied I stomped in it's head. It makes sense if I stomped in it's neck, but the one in the image didn't resemble having it's neck crushed either.
You use the mind meld to control Ragzlin for a bit to direct conversation, and the mind flayer replies with images of war. I allowed Ragzlin to control the final question. How he got "it's you" from the image that the mind flayer presented is still a mystery to me, but so be it.
