Piles of corpses are found at every corner, some charred, others left forgotten to rotten open-air. The streets are overrun with gangs, zombies, thugs or citizens driven crazy by the epidemic. The city guard can and does little to keep order, and most people are left to fend for themselves. Only Blacklake district and the City core remain relatively safe havens, barricaded and protected from the surrounding devastation.

She is later kidnapped by Yesgar, a dangerous escaped convict. The mayor had already paid the ransom, but her daughter wasn't returned, so you're tasked with tracking down Yesgar and rescue Shaldrissa. [[spoiler:When you finally find Yesgar, he insists that Shaldrissa manipulated him into a phony kidnapping scheme to rob Port Llast of its money. If you intimidate him, he'll admit that he spiked Shaldrissa's drink before asking her to run away with him. When you rescue Shaldrissa, she'll sob and fumble by saying she made a terrible mistake. It's also heavily implied [[RapeAsDrama that she was raped by Yesgar]]. If you kill Yesgar, your alignment will shift towards evil. Should you kill Shaldrissa, you don't get any alignment shift, but the "Real Journal of Shaldrissa" will drop and mention that she's the one who came up with the phony kidnapping]].
