Description:

A great darkness has fallen over the port town of Baldur's Gate and the lands around. Thieves and brigands roam the countryside, and they have driven you and your family from your farmland home. On a desperate rush to seek safety within the walls of Baldur's Gate, your hopes are dashed when you and your family are ambushed on the road by a group of thieves... thieves who claim to have ridden from Baldur's Gate to find you.

You must find her... before whatever terrible plots involving her unfold.
