If you want to talk her back from the edge, you need to succeed on either a whopping DC 30 or a DC 21 persuasion check. If you can't do that, you either need to kill her, let her leave your party for good, or allow her to go through with spearing the Nightsong.

I experienced this is not always the case. My Shadowheart threw away the spear both when I encouraged her to do so successfully and when I just told her I had her back however she decides. Only in case of encouraging violence did she kill the Nightsong, so it might also depend on your previous interactions. I'm playing a good druid with Shadowheart as a LI.

There are multiple ways for Shadowheart to go during that scene, depending on how you have been interacting with her up to that point. I'm on a 'good' run, and I have maxed out her affinity. I didn't have to roll any dice. I only had to do something that is pretty obvious, if the choice is there. I guess if you haven't been going that route, convincing her not to kill said personage is quite hard.
