Early in Avowed, you'll encounter Ilora, a potential companion who's initially imprisoned. Despite her initial prejudice towards your godlike appearance, freeing her proves beneficial for your journey.
Benefits of Freeing Ilora:
- Assists during the tutorial level
- Helps fight boss Steadman Ralke
- Plays a crucial role in the "Escape Plan" side quest
- Helps convince a smuggler to aid refugees without cost
If you don't free her, Ilora escapes independently and becomes hostile in Fort Northreach's final stages.
