Synopsis:
Default Dialogue - the conversation you can have with Minthara at any thime when she's a member of your party. You can ask her about herself, or events that you've experienced together during your adventures. Her responses to you may differ based on some of the choices you make after she joins. Provided you don't betray her for another, she will continue to stand by you, revelling in the violence that follows.

58. : He's been deprived of freedom and strong blood for so long that he is addicted to both.devnote

48. Player: Are you worried he'll drink your blood?

1. Player: Astarion's no slave. He's free of Cazador.
