Overhaul Games recently released the third informational update about the new NPCs players can choose to join their team in the upcoming Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition. This time the focus turned to the final of the three characters, Dorn Il-Khan, with a new short story about the character and several audio samples of his voice. BGEE is an updated version of Bioware's fantasy role playing game set in the Forgotten Realms. The game will feature an enhanced version of the Infinity Engine, the Tales of the Sword Coast expansion pack, new adventures, and new party members.

The next day the men allowed his mother to ride in the second wagon, leaving Dorn to trudge along in the dust. Just before noon, Dorn detected a strange scent on the western breeze. He raised his head to sniff.

The archer grinned. "Salt water. We'll see Luskan after the next hill."

The City of Sails came by its name honestly, its harbor filled with ships. The sails on the northern bank were all white, unlike the motley colors of those on the southern docks. The River Mirar divided the city into two unequal sections, its mouth filled with islets. Beyond the farthest of its three bridges, a four-spired tower rose from the largest isle. About a third of the city lay on the north bank, where the walls stood higher and the buildings loomed larger. To the south, hundreds of buildings crowded the narrow streets.
