Baldur’s Gate 3: How to find the Suspicious Sound in Moonrise Tower

This article will guide you on where to locate the Suspicious Sound in Moonrise Tower and its secrets behind it.


The source of the strange sound in Baldur’s Gate 3 emerges from a small crack located along the rafters of the Moonrise Tower. To locate this spot, enter the main hall where a group of goblins gathers. Upon entering the adjacent room you will find a thick mucus blocking an entrance.

Returning to the mess hall, you’ll find a ladder close to some wooden crates. Use this to climb up where you should be able to see a strange growth connected to the mucus if you pass a high perspective check.

Use Flight or Misty Step Spell ability to cross from one side of the rafters to the other.

Once on the other side, go to the Cracked Wall and you will be presented with three choices: an Arcana check, Reach in, or Leave.

Stick your hand into the Cracked Wall to get to the bottom of this mystery. After inserting your hand into the Cracked Wall, your character’s thoughts will be drawn deep inside the Moonrise Tower. 

Following a brief cutscene, you’ll have the chance to pull out your arm from the Cracked Wall using a Strength, Dexterity, or Sleight of Hand check. Opt for the ‘Do Nothing‘, if you desire to delve further into the enigma.

Now, you will be transported to the voice of the Absolute and you will receive plenty of important information regarding the Absolute’s character and your part in the story.

Upon concluding the conversation, the Absolute will ask you to accompany him to an undisclosed location. Once again, you’ll be presented with the opportunity to employ a skill check to disengage from the interaction. However, if you choose ‘Come. Become‘, you will be transported to a new area—the Illithid Oubliette—a possible origin of the tadpoles in Baldur’s Gate 3.
