Damned Mind Flayers | Baldur’s Gate 3: How to Free Darkheart
Freeing Darkheart from the Mind Flayer capsule that imprisons her is quite simple and will not involve any risk for the player, so we highly recommend you do so. First of all, Examine the console to the right of Darkheart’s capsule and you will immediately notice that there is a cavity in which to insert something, which you currently do not have. Head to the meat door in the room east of where Darkheart is. You will see another being locked in a capsule right in front of you, go past him and reach the end of the room.
Near the Cartilage Chest you will find a dead Thrall. Loot the corpse to find a Rune. Return to the Darkheart console and insert the rune into the cavity, then choose to place your hand on the console. Something will activate in your mind, select Illithid. This will open the capsule and Darkheart will be officially freed, becoming your ally for the rest of the Nautiloid tutorial.
