Siege of Dragonspear: Edwin's Tale of Woe

Bewilderment

Hello, I have a question about Edwin's quest in SoD. I'm on my 2nd playthrough of SoD and travelling with Edwin this time as I didn't bother at all with him in my 1st playthrough. I'm really glad I picked him for my 2nd playthrough, but I was wondering: when we meet Vichand at the Bridgefort camp and I'm completing the Call of the Wild Mage and the Creeping Darkness quests, I then opted not to kill Vichand at the camp (it just didn't feel right doing it in cold blood) and so then Edwin's quest updates to something like, 'if we kill Vichand in combat, Edwin will be extremely grateful' or something. So, then I finished up at Bridgefort but instead of having a battle, I chose the negotiating the surrender option, and so the crusaders dispersed and gave up Bridgefort. I then kind of thought we'd meet Vichand somewhere else down the line - like in the battles at the Coalition Camp after the Parley, or in the outer keep of Dragonspear, like The Barghest or Ashatiel encounters, and now I've reached the endgame and now realise that after Bridgefort, Vichand doesn't seem to appear anywhere else later in the game. Is that correct, or have I missed another location where Vichand turns up? Can anyone confirm? Thank you!

Indeed, Vichand does not appear again. Presumably, he stays at the Bridgefort as part of its new garrison after the surrender.

It's the problem with evil NPC, they tend to ask you doing not right things. Edwin also asks you to murder someone in BG2.
A wait until you try Dorn in BG2... ^^
