Brazen Brook: It seemed a bloody miracle we managed to take Ala Ghiri without spillin' a drop of blood, but it was all thanks to one man, a man the Alliance would very much like to speak with. Gettin' him to come in for questionin', however, has proven more trouble than we thought.

Baut: Brazen Brook sent you to help? Oh, thank heavens.
 
Baut: You see, I'm actually a centurion of the Garlean forces. Now before you do anything rash, let me explain.
 
Baut: When I learned of the Allied forces' approach, I knew we had no way of repelling them, so I ordered all of my men to retreat from Ala Ghiri. I then planned to turn myself in, but I ran into certain...complications.
 
Baut: ...I can see you're unconvinced. Tell you what, why not ask the villagers about me.
 
Baut: When you hear what they have to say, I think you'll come to understand why I couldn't turn myself in.
 
Baut: I doubt anything else I say will convince you, so go ahead. See what they have to say. [Interacting with Baut in the "speak with the people of Ala Ghiri" step]
 
J'dyalani: Baut? The place wouldn't be the same without him, and we certainly have no intentions of sending him to be butchered by the Alliance.
 
Weidheri: ...Where'd you hear that name? I won't have anyone speaking ill of him. Unless you're looking to pick a fight, you'll keep your mouth shut!


Fraunk: What do you want with Baut? He's not in trouble is he? We already told the Alliance scum they can't have him!

'''Brazen Brook:''' I appreciate your help, adventurer. This is a fairly delicate situation, you understand? We can't afford for things here to get out of hand.


Baut: The villagers initially meant to keep me hidden, but harboring one's enemy is a serious crime no matter whose side you're on, and I've heard what the Alliance does to those who help the Garleans. The stuff of nightmares, I tell you.
