It's hard enough to find and save Mayrina in Baldur's Gate 3 so when players are tasked with saving her dead husband as well, that only adds to the complexity. On one hand, Mayrina is lonely, scared, and will take any cure. On the other hand, that "cure" was invented by somebody with a record of eternally punishing the people she "helped."

There are a few outcomes in Baldur's Gate 3 and none of them are an ideal situation. This type of gray area is commonplace and makes the world exciting. Still, some gamers would like to know the outcomes of their choices involving the Bitter Divorce wand instead of blindly making lasting decisions with incomplete information.

Baldur's Gate 3 is certainly an impeccable and rewarding RPG; however, Act 3 of the game raises some concerns with its big shortcomings.

Updated on January 30, 2024, by Nahda Nabiilah: After defeating the evil hag and freeing Mayrina, Players will encounter her outside the witch’s house, mourning her husband as Auntie Ethel died before completing her end of the deal. Once you find a special item inside the witch’s workroom, it’s possible to use it on Connor to resurrect him, but the results won’t be what anyone expected as Auntie Ethel certainly didn’t intend to fully revive Mayrina’s husband.

This article divulges consequences within the game and reveals information the player's character may not know. Gamers committed to role-playing may wish to stop reading and find these things out for themselves.

Mayrina's Husband (Conor) Outcomes

Baldur's Gate 3 Mayrina Reunites With Conor

Here are all the possible outcomes upon finding the Bitter Divorce item in Auntie Ethel’s Workshop:

  • Snapping the wand means Mayrina becomes enraged with the character and then goes back to Baldur's Gate to mourn. Connor stays dead.
  • If players point the wand at the coffin, Connor comes back as a zombie, and Players may either:
    • Keep the wand, they get a temporary summoned minion to command in battle. Mayrina will also hate the player.
    • Give the wand to Mayrina, she will return to Baldur's Gate and try to help her husband adjust to life.

Before making any decision, keep in mind that Connor, as a minion, is rather easy to kill so don't recruit him hoping for a new party member. The community has experimented extensively with these options, and unfortunately, there isn't a single, ideal outcome. There are many different versions of sad endings, and it is up to the player to decide which sad ending is most acceptable. At least players can drink from the well after the business with Auntie Ethel is resolved.
