In Baldur’s Gate 3, the easiest way for your character to learn about the dowry’s location is by asking Mirileth herself. If one of your characters has the spell of “Speak to the Death,” they can simply target Mirileth’s body, and you’ll be able to ask her a few questions about her valuables.

She will tell you that the dowry can be found inside a haystack in the barn behind the building she is in. You can then go to the lower level, go inside the barn (X: 101 Y: 627), and open a gilded chest that’s located next to the haystack.

Once you loot the chest, you can choose to keep the dowry or hand it to Benryn to complete this quest.
