Synopsis:

The player must pick between siding with Voss and helping Orpheus or siding with Vlaakith's Inquisitor in killing Orpheus. Laezel is predisposed to a certain faction depending on the outcome of the Creche, but can be convinced by the player to swing to the other faction. A fight results with the opposing party and Laezel can leave the party and be hostile if not convinced to side with the Player's decision.

How to trigger:

Go to bed in the Intermezzo Camp when you arrive. Plays automatically after the VossAmbush scene if Laezel is a Companion, either in the party, or left in camp.|
