Help the Hag Survivors Walkthrough
- After unlocking the quest, travel to Barren's Coop. You will find clues (letter on the table) that the Hag Survivors were evicted and are now holed up at Old Garlow's Place.
- Mayrina, the girl you saved from Aunt Ethel, is at Old Galow's Place (X-52, Y-148), Baldur's Gate Lower City. This time she was turned into a sheep by Hag, you can free her by using Remove Curse spell or destroying the voodoo doll. (Alternatively, you can pickpocket Jatlo, find the note from Auntie then confront him. He will transformed into a Redcap and attack. Kill him will end the curse.)
- After saving Mayrina and defeating Jatlo, take the book in the wall safe, it tells you how to properly kill a hag. (Quest Help the Hag Survivors, Avenge the Hag Survivors, Save Vanra. You need the Hag's Bane recipe.)
- Visit Flaming Fist barracks north of the Basilisk Gate and talk to Vanra's mother, After that investigate the Blushing Mermaid. However, the captain claims there's no missing child, and offers you gold to kill the mother.
- You need to refuse the offer, forcing Aunt Ethel to reveal her true form. Defeat her red caps and chase her into the basement. The Hag's lair is hidden behind an illusionary wall.
- The real captain and the crew are kept in Hag's lair as minions. If you want to keep them alive after the confrontation with Aunt Ethel, cast Protect from Good and Evil spell on one of your party members, wear the Whispering Mask, and walk past these minions. On the other side, you can lower the wall to let your whole team pass.
- In order to Kill Aunt Ethel without killing Vanra, you need to brew Hag's Bane potion. (You can acquire the recipe in Old Garlow's Place wall safe.)
- Use Dried Fey Flower and any Essence to craft the Hag's Bane potion. Then, move forward to confront Aunt Ethel. You need to burn all her mushrooms and then throw the potion on her to save Varna.
- Kill Aunt Ethel and report to Mayrina to complete this quest.

How to kill Ethel without her summoning other innocents and save Vanra:
1) Sneak and Jump
2) Position your team close to the mushroom
3) Must have Gale successfully cast Eyebite-Asleep for 10 turns on her. (Reload if needed)
4) ???
5) You are a pro BG3 player.

A very frustrating quest, which revealed to me that "knocked out" actually just means dead. You go to the effort of not killing innocents by knocking them out, and the game just considers them dead. "Captain Grisly is dead".. NO, she is not, I knocked her out. So annoying.
Given just how good this game is, and how much attention to detail there is, this is a serious over sight or poor design. It renders the entire function of "non lethal attacks" in the game, as virtually useless in all but about 2 encounters. I hope they fix this.

Bug where it stays in your quest log as an active quest even after completing it.

It's bugged for me.
I'm at the Ethel fight and whenever I throw the Hag's Bane, it just does 6 blunt damage and doesn't apply the status that makes her vomit the kid up. Just went back about 30 minutes to when I saved Mayrina from being a sheep, still the same thing.

can you still get this quest after keeping second marriage wand?

I solved this by talking to the sheep (Speak with Animals) and having her bleat out something about a doll. I found a nearby glowing doll and cast remove curse on it, which also cured the Sheep/Mayrina of her polymorph.

The only disappointing about this is that I can't talk to her corpse again to really rub it in her face about her hag daughter

You can also complete this mission by simply defeating Auntie Ethel via non-lethal damage, leaving her at 1 hp and knocked out. This lets you cut the child free without needing the potion.

i killed ethel and saved the girl and it says to report to mayrina, but when i go to the quest marker at the hag survivor place she's nowhere to be found. anyone know where she went?
I got stuck with the mission completed and incomplete by doing it out of order! Killed the hag just exploring the city so I can't cure Mayrina so I got the reward but the mission isn't marked complete
