They were disappointed to find the creature\u2019s corpse instead. But what proved most devastating was learning that Ansur had once been the lover of Balduran, the Emperor the player had befriended. \u201cThen after I\u2019m forced to kill Ansur, I read how they were lovers. Ansur was trying to save Balduran\u2019s soul from becoming Illithid (Mind Flayer), and Balduran kills him. I liked the Emperor at first, but how can you hide your true identity from me and then kill your dragon lover!\u201d The Redditor said that while games don\u2019t usually elicit strong emotions from them, they cried at Baldur\u2019s Gate 3\u2019s Ansur revelation.
