Investigate the Beach Walkthrough
Investigate the music
Work your way down the mountain path until you reach the water. There, you’ll find the young tiefling Mirkon in some kind of trance.
Help the child
Approach the kid and speak with him to begin a conversation. Focus on the sound until you pass the nature check to reveal the boy under a harpy’s charm. You’ll then need to pass several skill checks to break free of the song. This will result in a battle against a group of four harpies.
Alternatively, you can just run into the water to start combat with them. After a few turns, a fifth one will show up. Defeat them all, then speak with the child to learn that he was sent there by Mol. He then tells you to seek out Doni and utter the passphrase to reach the Tiefling Hideout.
Find Mol
If you’ve already been there and met Mol, then you know where to find her.
Before heading there, go to the rock where the harpies were to find a small path leading to the ocean. There, you will find a chest with some gold.
If you keep following the path along the beach, you’ll eventually spot the harpy’s nest. You’ll need a way to cross the gap too wide to jump. A character with Misty Step can get the job done. Loot the nest to receive a magic ring, ore, and supply pack.
To complete the quest, speak with Mol. She will thank you for helping the kid out. There will be no dialog option or reward.
