Must have missed something? Where are you saved by a god in bg3?
At the very end of the intro cutscene, when you are knocked out of the Nautiloid by a rock, an unknown magical force saves you from falling to your death. This is never explained in Act 1 and if I had to guess it is the Absolute saving you because you are the chosen one etc. etc. A bit cliche to say the least. DOS2 did the exact same thing, almost beat for beat, with the sinking ship going down and you being saved by a god. You even wake up on a beach again, lol.
