There are many rare cutscenes in Baldur’s Gate 3, and players just discovered a hidden flashback to Shadowheart’s past in Act 1.
Baldur’s Gate 3 is full of secrets that often offer insight into the companions’ past. For example, the discovery of Tara, Gayle’s tressym, during the first part of Act 3. There are also others that foreshadow how the characters’ pasts come into play later in the adventure.
And indeed, Shadowheart ‘s past is one of the most mysterious of all the characters. In fact, she swears not to remember anything. However, most fans can get an intriguing cutscene from this. It takes place while exploring the Devastated Village, one of the first scenarios of Act 1.
When players go to the mill where Barcus Wroot is tied up, they will see a destroyed statue of Shar. This will automatically trigger a dialogue with Shadowheart, visibly intrigued by the statue. If players ask her what’s distracting her, she won’t say anything. It will simply suggest that nature may offer other solutions. However, that’s not all. Indeed, fans were surprised to discover that there is another cutscene hidden in the Devastated Village, linked to Shadowheart’s past.

As described on Reddit by player harklight0, if players find the “Old School Textbook”inside the house where the ogres are fighting (X:2, Y:360), they will get an interesting alternative to the previous dialogue.
The player also suggested getting a high approval rating from Shadowheart before triggering this scene. Otherwise, she will not describe how she felt after getting the book and will dismiss any questions about it.

“I only got the cutscene from the book once, and I never understood why I couldn’t get it again. This is because I saved Barcus before collecting my Headband of Intellect.», noted a player.
Baldur’s Gate 3 fans have actually pointed out that this scene can only be seen if players have not yet seen his reaction to Shar’s statue being destroyed, since Baldur’s Gate 3 only allows one such callback by part.
