Quest stages of Rescue the Illithid's Captive
1. Find a way to release the captive.
We encountered a survivor, trapped inside one of the pods aboard the nautiloid. Perhaps we can find a way to free her.
Retrieve the Eldritch Rune that you can find in the corpse that is located at the end of the next room.
We found an Eldritch Rune. It may help us to rescue the captive half-elf.
2. Talk to the half-elf.
1. Once you have the Eldritch Rune return to the pod in which Shadowheart is trapped and insert the rune into the console located on its right side. If you successfully pass the dice roll check then Shadowheart will get out of the capsule and you will be able to talk to her.
We opened the pod using an Eldritch Rune, and freed the captive. We should speak to her.
2. A sufficiently strong character, such as the Barbarian, can rip off the pod's lid (dice roll check).
We forced the pod open using our brute strength, freeing the captive. We should speak to her.
3. Quest Completed!

We learned that the survivor aboard the nautiloid is called Shadowheart. She joined us.
2 . If, while talking to Shadowheart, you decide not to have her join you.

3. If you set Shadowheart free but don't talk to her.
We freed the captive aboard the nautiloid from her pod, but left her behind.
4. If you start this quest but fail to free Shadowheart before you leave the ship.
We left the captive inside the pod, and escaped the nautiloid without her.
