- Shut up. Those words could be your last.
- Step between the crossbows and the goblin.
- Do nothing.
If you choose to step in between, Gale will approve. She will then ask you to move.
- [INTIMIDATION] Lower the crossbow, r I'll deliver you right to your brother.
- [PERSUASION] No, shoot me. Should be easy, right?
- [PERSUASION] This won't avenge Kanon. It won't change anything.
- [DETECT THOUGHTS] Read the tiefling's thoughts.
- Step out of the way.
- Succeed in an Intimidation check, this way you threaten to kill Arka
- Prompt Arka to shoot you, this is a Persuasion check. Succeeding in doing so, Arka lowers the crossbow and after angrily venting she leaves.
- If you choose the 3rd option: Persuasion and succeed, Arka will agree with you.
Arka: Why do you care if a goblin lives or dies?
- Because she's not a practice target. She's a person.
- If she dies, she'll take everything she knows to thegrave.
- A goblin prisoner. Her life isn't yours to take.
- Because vengeance eats people alive. you'll grant the goblins two victories this day.
- My reasons are my own.
- [Bard] She still has a story to tell. One I want to hear.
Give a soft answer and Lae'zel will disapprove, however, Shadowheart will approve. You can further choose to interact with

Following the celebration and the refugee's farewell, she can be found dead on a cliff between the blighted village and the Goblin camp. If speak with dead is used on her body, the corpse will refuse to respond and the spell will end.

She will very likely die in the first turn of the grove raid when the spider jumps up and attack her twice. I station my archer with high initiative there to take out the spider first. She will be relatively safe after that unless Minthara decided to port to that spot later.

Arka can be found dead on the ridge overlooking the Goblin camp in between the camp and the Blighted village, on the right side of the main road leading to the bridge from the Village. For those who missed it, unsure if this is due to you helping Sazza escape or not.

Can't find her in Acts 2 or 3. Memnos is dead in Act 2 but no Arka yet.

In relation to Kanon dying when you get to the Druid's Grove initially. If you go activate the Teleport Sigil BEFORE heading to the Gate to fight, Arka and her friend Memnos will fast forward after the fight to the prison with Sazza. Thus losing you the Approval Gain for Shadowheart and Lae'zel for telling her "Get vengeance." To make sure this does NOT happen. Go to the fight, and then up the ladder as soon as you can to engage in conversation with Arka, and Memnos. Skipping the initial scene, and the get inside from Zevlor has no impact on this. The only impact on this moment is activating the portal off to the side. Which is mildly annoying. You can also use the fight while everyone is frozen in this manner, to go and kill Sazza BEFORE Arka and Memnos get there, which results in a minor change of dialogue from Arka when she gets there, and when she goes and stands outside of the jail.

Someone posted that if you avoid her encounter with the prisoner Sazza, Arka will not run off and die at goblin camp. Once the (3) leaders are dead there will even be a conclusion with funeral scene later...Does this still work for full release?

As of patch 9, if you let her shoot the goblin, she will still end up dead near the Goblin Camp.
