“Rescue the Trapped Man” is one of the tragic side quests players can take in Act 1 of Baldur’s Gate 3. To start this quest, head to the fiery village on the northern side of the map, and you’ll find Benryn trapped under some planks. Rescue him, and he’ll talk about the dowry ring he gave to his betrothed. It is up to you to find Benryn and Mirileth’s Dowry in Baldur’s Gate 3 now.
Where to Find Benryn and Mirileth’s Dowry Ring in Baldur’s Gate 3
To find Benryn and Mirileth’s dowry ring in Baldur’s Gate 3, you’ll want to head to the coordinates around X: -100, Y: 620. Here, you’ll be in the town of Waukeen’s Rest, north of the Goblin Camp, and near where the fires are happening in the village.
There is a barn here with a haystack and some traps around you’ll want to avoid. Go up to the haystack and save beforehand, because you’ll need your Perception check to succeed here. If it does, you’ll notice something is hidden in the hay itself.
For some odd reason, it just so happens that Benryn’s dowry ring is there. Pick it up and take it back to Benryn. You’ll have the option to give the ring back to him or keep it for yourself if you want to be one of the cruelest people around.
To be fair, the dowry ring is worth a lot for this early in the game, so you may want to keep it. However, it is better to give the ring back to Benryn, who will reflect on everything. You can even put him out of his misery after the fact, as it is unlikely he will survive for long anyways. You can then take the ring back or leave the quest as is.
Baldur’s Gate 3 is available for PCs and will release for the PS5 on September 6, 2023.
