Tips and Misc

Useful resists: Acid, Sonic
This quest is very linear.
The Jeweled Key to unlock the first door may be found in any of the four side chambers, on one of the Cluttered Tables. Be sure to actually pick up the key after discovering it!

It's possible to sneak into the rooms and search the desks (with a Move Silently check) without waking up any of the assassins.

Aloysius will appear just past the gate after the locked door, at the bottom of the stairs; he'll have a named Howler set upon him that needs slaying. Make sure to talk to Aloysius after! You can buff and heal him as normal.
- It's possible to range Rhyll in relative safety by going to the stairs in the northeast corner and leaping onto a pillar next to the column. From there you can jump onto the balcony along the east wall, and then onto the cage itself if desired.
- Note that you can rescue Aloysius even before Rhyll is released.
In the Kennel, it's possible to range the howlers in relative safety by going to the boxes in the southwest corner and leaping onto the cage; from there you can jump up to the rafters traversing the room. Note that the physics in the room makes the initial jump tricky and you only have a few seconds to do so before Karnath lets slip the dogs of war.
The second shrine is actually in a room at the bottom of the stairs; go right at that T-intersection.
Don't worry if you get a notice about gargoyles moving. It's only their Shadows...
(Optional) The locked door has a chest with a nasty Shadow guarding it.
The Gold Key to unlock the lower door is guarded by Kuttar or Yzthmeth, in any of the three rooms along the northern corridor.
The portal beyond that door is a point of no-return... go ahead and shrine.
The endfight includes a LOT of Howlers who spawn behind closed doors, which open after talking to Karleth, enough to almost instantly get to red dungeon alert on some difficulties; they are active before you talk to him, so some AoE spells can clear them out while still behind the doors.
- Some spells and effects that work:
- Some spells and effects that do NOT work:
  - Consecration (from Divine Crusader)
  - Soundburst
  - Greater Shout
  - Fascinate
  - Blade Barrier
  - Cometfall
Fledren will appear in the end room, in a cage. During the fight, Karleth will occasionally flip a lever down at one of the four corners of the cage, triggering a trap aimed at Fledren; you will need to find the switch and flip it back up to stop it and save him. Note that Karleth doesn't need to actually be near the lever to flip it.
Trivia: Both captives in this quest have surnames which are also English cities (Cornwall and Hull respectively.)
