Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Suggestions & Feedback Raise the Gith Egg

I kinda wanted the young Githyanki to grow up to be a Paladin like me. I mentioned the Kuo Toa in a different thread. Imagining an entire race taking my Oath.

Here I am hoping my dragonborn paladin can raise them with Lae'zel somehow. That kid would be the next Zerthimon.

Yeah, the choice is to either let him die (no matter if you took the egg or not - Orpheus implies the young gith dies if the egg stays with you) or to let mad scientists to mess with his mind.
No real passable explanation why we cannot take care of him ourselves.

I just wanted the kid to be sworn to something not Vlaakith

This is something that would be a great outcome, even if we could saw this only as part of game ending. I dislike the idea of my choice of raising it to not have any meaning storywise. Why it's here if I can't as a player have fun with it? Especially if You tried hard for getting the egg in a good way, meaning the gith gave it to You willingly, because both of You wanted to give the kid a chance to live. With this resolution I assume, You should've the knowledge of how to take care of the egg so it would hatch in future, because if not, the game made a fool of that gith caretaker narratively.

Yeah, i want there to be a meaningful outcome, from chosing to take this egg and raise the child as our own...

Makes you wonder what the society of brilliance did to hatch him that level 12 PC can't do.
