Освободить крепость Де'Арнис
Если вы уже пришли сюда, вам ничего не остается делать, кроме как попытаться освободить крепость. Неважно, является ли ваш персонаж воином или варваром (они потом получают крепость в свое распоряжение в качестве стронгхолда). Чтобы попасть сюда, вы должны были поговорить с Налией. Если она к вам не присоединилась, или присоединилась, но потом ушла, то вы найдете ее за частоколом (x 770 y 3225).
Налия говорит, наконец, с кем вам придется сражаться - это тролли и юань-ти (хотя названия последних она и не знает). А это значит, что вам понадобится оружие, наносящее повреждение кислотой и огнем. Поговорите с капитаном Аратом, и когда вы будете с ним прощаться, он даст вам немного огненных стрел (см. раздел Квесты, чтобы узнать, как получать от него стрелы бесконечно). После этого можете входить в крепость.
Идите от огороженного частоколом участка на северо-восток, пока не найдете секретный вход (x 1300 y 2750). Дверь скрыта, поэтому, чтобы найти ее, можете использовать воровское умение Обнаружить ловушки. Заходите внутрь.

If you're here, then there's only one thing to do, and that is to attempt
to clear out the De'Arnise Hold. This can be done whether you are a
Fighter/Barbarian or not, although only they gain possession of it later
as their Stronghold. In order to even be here, you must have talked to
Nalia. If you didn't join up with her, or if she left, you can find her
in the Palisade (x 770 y 3225).
Nalia tells you that you are fighting Trolls and Yuan-ti (although she
doesn't know those by name). Which means that you will want Flame/Acid
based weaponry. Talk to Captain Arat, and as you are about to say
goodbye to him he gives you some Flame Arrows (see Quests below for a way
to get infinite Arrows off of him). Once you are done there, it is time
to enter the De'Arnise Hold.
Leave the palisade, and go northeast a little until you find the Secret
Entrance (x 1300 y 2750). It is a secret door, so having a Thief do
Find Traps could help you find it. Open it and go inside.
- THE SECRET PASSAGE (AR 1302)
There's nothing in this first room. Nalia simply reminds you of your
goals in here, find Daleson and open the Drawbridge. Unlock then open
the only door.
This room has 2 containers with treasure (neither are trapped nor
locked):
Spells - Agannazar's Scorcher (Mage, to kill trolls of course)
Potions
Bullets
Light Crossbow of Speed
Heavy Crossbow
Arrows +2
Bolts +2
Open the next door. This leads to another secret door (x 600 y 1400),
which is actually inside of the De'Arnise Hold (we were in the secret
passage before that). Open the secret door.
- DALESON
A Troll is in this room and he kills the servant here. You don't really
have a shot at saving him. Kill the troll (being sure to hit it with
Fire or Acid when it falls down). Search the table (x 850 y 1265):
Spells - Protection from Normal Weapons (Mage)
Bullets +2
There is a secret door on the northwest wall (x 700 y 1230), open it to
find Daleson. This guy provides all sorts of information about what you
are facing, who you must save, the relic of the Keep (the Flail of the
Ages) and where you need to end out (in the "cellar"). If Nalia is with
you then she does most of the talking.
- THE SECRET FORGE & THE FLAIL OF THE AGES
Go into the room that Daleson was in. There are 2 containers in here
with mostly minor weaponry, although you will want to take the magic
arrows here (and possibly the magic long bow).
There is another secret door in the northwest wall (x 410 y 933). At the
end of this passage is another secret door which leads to the Secret
Forge of the Flail of Ages. There are three pieces to the Flail of Ages.
Whenever you get one, bring it to this forge to add it to the whole.
It can exist just fine with one, two or all three parts. There is a
chest here with some minor treasures. (x 560 y 400)
Search the northeast wall for another secret door (x 630 y 380). Just
past that is another secret door. Search the lion statue (x 950 y 175)
to find:
Flail Head (Cold, 1 of 3)
Ring of Earth Control (AC +1, Summon Earth Elemental, Control E.E.)
810 gold
- LOOTING THE MAIN FLOOR
Go back to Daleson's Room and open the (normal) door. Directly in front
of your party is the main Eating Hall, but it isn't important.
Drop south and east. There is a chest here (x 1430 y 1370): (TRAPPED)
Dagger +2
450 gold
The room at (x 1325 y 520) has some very minor treasures in it. The only
worthwhile treasure is found on the bed near the bathroom, which has a
couple of spells (Protection from Normal Weapons and Breach). However,
if you go from there and open up the door to the bathroom, you can find a
Star Sapphire in the toilet (x 1765 y 500).
The next room southwards (x 1835 y 885) has some minor treasures to be
found on a fish (x 1790 y 675) and it has a stove. If only you had
something to cook. Hmmm... seems that Daleson mentioned feeding some
great beasts. Now, what did he feed them...
- MAKING DOGMEAT STEW
Yeah, that's right. Go out the door (x 1950 y 1140) to the exterior of
the Keep. Kill the Otyugh (5000 exp). Then track down and kill the four
family dogs and take their "dog meat". Pleasant. Go back inside and
operate the stove to create a thick, meaty stew. (The main character
must have all 4 meats on him in order to make the stew) For this you get
11,500 experience.
- OPENING THE DRAWBRIDGE
Go back outside. Then find the stairs (x 2175 y 1640) and go up that
until you are on the Keep's walls. Ignore the door for the moment.
There will be an ice troll on the wall. Kill it and keep going. You
will find the switch to open the Drawbridge at (x 2833 y 1840). Click it
once to open. For this you get 29,750 experience.
Go back to the main level (keep on ignoring that side door). There you
will see Humans battling it out with Giant Trolls and Greater Yuan-ti.
Join the battle if you like (good experience). Then go back into the
main door to the keep. The battle continues inside, but once these
trolls are beaten, the guards leave.
- LOOTING THE SECOND FLOOR OF THE KEEP (AR 1303)
Open the door at (x 2000 y 1050) to get to the stairs. Another servant
gets whacked in here. Go up the stairs.
Nalia provides some more information on what needs to be done here. She
recommends finding her auntie's bedroom and finding the secret passage
that leads to the cellar. (Why would the cellar be connected only to the
second floor anyway?) In this room are 2 containers with treasure,
although the only good thing is the Spell Turning spell.
Open the southeastern door (x 2100 y 1000) and enter that passage. The
side room here has some minor treasure. Open the southwest door
(x 2075 y 1425) to enter the Library. In here you will find one
mini-troll, a big troll that becomes two smaller ones when killed, and a
Yuan-ti mage. Take out the mage first. The stairs here lead up to the
roof (which is where that door we ignored goes as well, there's nothing
up there worth looking at). Search the 3 bookcases here:
Keep Key
Spells - Conjure Lesser Earth Elemental (Mage)
Minor Spell Turning (Mage)
Bolts +1
Since the western door cannot be opened, that leaves only the southern
door (x 1730 y 1650). The first room along this passage has 1 container
with minor treasures (Detect Illusions, 20 Arrows, etc.). Go along down
to the second door to find the Lady of the Keep. She isn't too impressed
with you. Eventually she'll go away. Remember this room, as we'll be
coming back here in a moment (we have more looting to do first).
Continue to the end of the passage and open the door (x 375 y 1035).
Continue through this room into the next passage. Kill the Ice Troll.
This passage eventually goes all the way back to the library. Ignore the
northern door for the moment, and open the southern door (x 1550 y 630).
Search the Fireplace: (TRAPPED)
Wand of Frost
There is a Secret Door on the southeast wall (x 1480 y 830). Follow this
passage all the way to what looks like a dead end. It isn't. Open this
secret door and enter a small room. There are 2 chests in here with
mostly minor treasures (although the spell Spell Thrust is nice). Detrap
the next door and go in.
Within this room is a former guardsman by the name of Glaicas. There is
a non-violent way to end this, (see below) but only if you have Nalia in
your party.
Glaicas - 9500 exp
Flail Head (Acid, 2 of 3)
Full Plate Mail
Potions
Gold
Non-violent Solution: (from Sergio Le Roux)
In the de'Arnise Hold, in the secret room where Glaicas is located,
you have to charm him to "normalcy". But there's a bug with the game:
a couple of seconds after you charm him, he turns blue for about 1
second, then turns green again. So, basically, your own charm spell
is interfering with the script that would lead to him talking to
you.
If you want to save him (and earn 22,550 xp), you have to time it
right so that when you charm him (he turns green) one of your attacks
will hit him (this must happen BEFORE he turns blue). He will turn
red again... pause the game and make sure you stop all your
characters! He will continue being hostile, but then the script will
kick in. He'll talk to you and give you the last part of the flail.
There is absolutely nothing in the next room, so go back out.
- THE GOLEMS
Go back to the Lady's room and search for traps until the secret door
(x 833 y 1033) shows up. This leads to a very small room with nothing in
it. There are two secret doors from this place, one to the west and one
to the north. Open the west one and go in.
This is what I like to call the "Golem Chapel." Depending on what level
you are on you face different Golems. If you are a high level then you
are facing the tough Adamantite Golem. I, however, faced an Iron Golem.
At the end of this chamber are three Statues that can be searched for
some pretty good magical items. However, when you take those items, you
WILL be attacked by some of the golems. So, naturally, the best strategy
is to kill the golems BEFORE taking the treasure. If you don't have any
+2 or better weaponry, you might want to go take the treasure first so
that you have weapons that can harm them.
One odd way to kill the golems in this room is to drop Cloudkills on
them and shut the door. Wait. Repeat as needed.
Remember, if you're frustrated you could always use my patented "fake
talk" strategy. Move your fighters into position (only the ones with +2
weaponry, or weapons that have extra damage). Adamantite Golems require
+3 weapons or better to damage (Lilarcor, the Hammer in this very room,
Melf's Minute Meteors, etc). Then PAUSE and "talk" to all the golems.
Then press F2 and have your fighters attack one golem. Unpause. Wait 5
seconds, pause again and repeat. Doing this you can avoid getting
attacked at all.
Note: Remember Clay Golems need to be hit with Blunt Weaponry. The
Flail of the Ages works well. Stone Golems need piercing
weaponry. And the only weapon I had that affected an Iron Golem
was Lilarcor, the Sentient Sword.
Trick: It's also possible to get the treasure without fighting the
golems at all. I just had Aerie cast "Sanctuary" on herself
before filching the weapons (all the other characters were in
another room). As stealing the items isn't counted as a hostile
action, the spell prevents the golems from acknowledging her
existence. I think they're still activated, though, leaving the
option to fight them available if you so wish (they just won't
chase after Aerie). Swift 'n' sweet. (from SpookyScarecrow)
Also, you can take the Flail part without the golems attacking
you. You can even look in each of the statues to see what is
there, as long as you don't take anything you won't be
attacked.
Once the golems are gone you can search the three statues at your
leisure:
Flail Head (Fire, 3 of 3)
Axe +3: Frostreaver (extra Ice damage)
Elven Court Long Bow +3
War Hammer +1, +4 vs. Giants
Then you can open the other secret door and descend to the Cellar, I
would, however, finish the Flail of the Ages first.
- FINISHING THE FLAIL OF THE AGES
Go back to the Secret Forge and use it with all 3 heads to create the
completed Flail of the Ages. Oh, and you get 22,350 experience as well.
Note: If you wait to finish the Flail until AFTER you take control of
the Stronghold (if you are a Fighter type character) then you
get NO Exp for finishing the Flail.
- THE CELLAR (AR 1301)
Back upstairs, open the other secret door and descend into the Cellar.
There are three containers in here, most of which have merely minor
treasures in them (magic arrows are fun). The TRAPPED chest at
(x 875 y 265) has a:
Shield Amulet
Open the door and go into the next Troll-ridden room. There's a new type
of troll here, called the Spectral Troll. Search two of the Iron Maidens
at the top of the room to get an Identify Scroll.
The next room is crawling with Umber Hulks. To prevent your entire party
from being Confused and Slaughtered, send only one person in and have
that person protected from Confusion (Mind Blank, Chaotic Commands, or
have the Sentient Sword equipped, the Barbarian Rage command also works).
Then draw the Umber Hulks into the previous room where they can be cut
down. There are 4 containers in here, with mostly minor treasures, but
some things stick out:
Orc Leather +3 (-1 CHA)
Bullets +2 and Bullets +1
Now I bet you're wondering what we're doing with that Dog Food. I know
you are. Enter the southwestern passage (the one that is already open)
and open the second cell door (x 850 y 1280). There is a tunnel here
that searches like a container. It has some dog bones. Put the Dog Food
here to get 18,750 experience.
Note: If you want to avoid the Umber Hulk battle all you have to do
is have someone sneak past them (invisible or hiding in shadows)
and place the Dog Stew in its place. The Umber Hulks will then
run out of the room to feed. But you can place the Dog Food
there whether you have already killed the Umber Hulks or not.
Through the northeastern door (x 2000 y 770) is the BOSS of this area,
TorGal. TorGal seems to indicate that he was hired by someone to kill
the Arnise family here. But who would do such a thing? Before you can
find out you have to fight. You have to fight TorGal and his Giant Troll
cronies. Many people like the spell "Cloudkill" here.
TorGal - 15,000 exp
Minor Treasures
Then search the pedestal under the statue:
Spells - Feeblemind (Mage)
2126 Gold
Gems & Necklaces
Leave the Keep and Nalia will give you your reward: 10,650 gold and
45,500 experience. Anything past this point is part of the Fighter's
Stronghold Quests (and covered in the Strongholds section at the end of
the walkthrough), and so if you are not a Fighter, you won't get it. In
fact, if you aren't a fighter, Nalia can't stay here and the Keep will be
seized by the Roenalls.
Quests: -------
QUEST: Nalia's Father's Funeral
This Quest can only happen AFTER you have cleared out the De'Arnise
Hold AND Nalia is in your party. A week must pass after the reward
for clearing the Keep is given. Then if you are in a city, a
messenger will arrive and tell you to go to the Graveyard for her
father's funeral. This is time based, you must go to the Graveyard
or Nalia will go without you.
Once at the Graveyard you will be met by the messenger who shows
you to the Funeral site. Go up the stairs. There you will meet
Isaea Roenall, her former fiance. Talking with him reveals the
sort of person that he is, and why Nalia was in no rush to marry
him. He ends his tirade with a threat and leaves.
Nalia has an amusing little rant about him and you can go.
QUEST: The Return of the Fiance & the Abduction of Nalia
Barg - Docks (AR 0300, x 2380 y 2500)
Roenall Estate - Government District (AR 1000, x 2810 y 140)
24 hours after the Funeral, Isaea tracks you and Nalia down and
demands that she honor her commitments. He then places her under
arrest using his authority as an Amnish official. She is taken
into custody and he laughs at you. It is suggested (for me it was
from Yoshimo) that I attempt to find some evidence of his wrong-
doing and present it to his superiors.
Note: On my latest journey through the game, I managed to
trigger this event before it was time (in the middle of
the funeral, in fact), such that he didn't kidnap her at
all, merely repeated what he had said during the funeral.
Why? Bodhi grabbed me and made her offer before Nalia
could make her rant about Isaea being a bastard. So, to
get Nalia kidnapped, I did a quick cheat with a
CLUAConsole:CreateCreature("isaea") to get this quest.
Then Khellor Ahmson comes up to you with a plan to get back at
wicked Isaea. You are told to watch a man named Barg at the docks,
to search Isaea's home in the Government district (which he will
unlock) and to present any evidence you find to Corgeig Axehand,
Isaea's superior.
Go to the Docks and find Barg (he's near the Sea's Bounty). Talk
to him and get him to reveal information on Isaea. He mentions one
Officer Dirth, who happens to be in the Sea's Bounty right now.
Enter the tavern and talk to him. This will end in violence.
Dirth - 3200 exp
Full Plate Mail
Spells - Simulacrum (Mage)
Slavery Documents
We have evidence, but not enough yet. Go to the government
district and go to the very top of the map. The building there is
the Roenall building. Open it and go inside. Inside the bedroom,
search the drawers there to get Isaea's financial records. Leave
the house.
Enter the Government Council Building and talk to Corgeig Axehand.
Present him with all of your evidence (especially the financial
records) and he will summon Isaea forth. Corgeig launches a major
investigation towards Isaea, which frees up Nalia to rejoin you.
Isaea promises that this isn't over yet. (yet that appears to be
it for him)
OTHER: Infinite Flame Arrows
Captain Arat - De'Arnise Area (AR 1300, x 675 y 3320)
This can only be done BEFORE the keep is liberated. Talk to
Captain Arat and when you say farewell he gives you some Flame
Arrows. Now simply talk to him again (3,3) and you will get
another set of Flame Arrows. You can repeat this as often as you
wish to get as many arrows as you wish. I would replace all of
your regular arrows with Flame Arrows here. Once the Keep is
liberated Arat leaves forever.
