BG3 Emperor Reveals He Was Mind Controlling Duke Stelmane

After going to the hideout underneath the Elfsong tavern (the emperor s old hideout), the emperor will come to you at your next long rest. In this playthrough I attempted to kill him when Vlaakith asks you to at the gith creche. Typically, this is where he d attempt to romance you but not in my case due to me attempting to kill him.
