Baldur's Gate II: Chapter 1 - I Spit On His Name, I Spit On This Place
4In the first episode of Baldur's Gate II: Shadows Of Amn, the second game in the Baldur's Gate series, we pick things up right from where they were left at the end of the Siege Of Dragonspear expansion: that is, with David and his friends kidnapped by an unknown enemy in the wilderness, separated from each other and then, apparently, subjected to a series of painful experiments in a mysterious underground laboratory - experiments which, unfortunately, not every one of them has survived. After their captor is briefly distracted by an outside attack on the complex, David and Imoen manage to break free of their cages, rally their surviving friends Minsc and Jaheira, and embark on the dangerous quest of escaping the lab. In the process, while encountering various protective golems, tortured prisoners, and captive Dryads, they learn that their captor's name is Irenicus, that his ruthlessness and cruelty knows few, if any bounds, and that he must have suffered some VERY serious childhood traumas to get to where things are at the present moment.
