Baldur’s Gate 3 – Playthrough 13 – Wicked – Evil

This is part 5 in a series of 5 posts. Start from the first one if you want this post to make sense. Bear in mind that I’m Wiccan. When I talk about the Wicked Witch Sandalwood, it's just a story. This is not a SPOILER ALERT! Sandalwood asked me not to issue any spoiler warnings. She…

Baldur’s Gate 3 – Playthrough 13 – Wicked – Vengeance
