How to Find the Nightsong in Baldur’s Gate 3 (BG3)

TheNightsongis an important part of Shadowheart’s storyline, so it should be expected that you won’t just stumble upon her. Instead, tracking her down will likely span a good bit of your time in Act Two, but you should still be aware of her location so you don’t accidentally go too far. There’s not too much of a worry, though, as there is only one place to find her.
