Since I won't kill Astarion or Minthara for a Bhaal ending, I have to betray Bhaal. What makes me extremely sad about this route is losing Sceleritas. You should be able to convince Sceleritas of your own dark plans to become a god without Bhaal and he will still stay with his beloved master and then follow him as a companion such as Scratch.
The fact that companions often react so little to the Durge is often strange. Nobody questions what Raphael says
, that he is a big fan of your work. They haven't known you for 5 minutes and you tell them that you feel the urge to murder. I mean, yes, I had a dagger in my head, but it's not tactically smart to tell everyone something like that. Even in the Moonrise Tower, no reaction. Astarion and the Dark Urge shared the same hunting ground, I can't imagine that in 200 years he never heard anything about the Dark Urge and all the murders, nor did Cazador, who must have been less than happy about the bloody competition it creates false attention. The companions simply do not become suspicious.
