Continue to the northeast and head down the eastern staircase to the two rooms in the center of the crypt. There are some more baddies in here as well as three areas to loot: the hole in the north wall of the burial room, the easternmost sarcophagus, and the container in the southern room. Be sure to pillage the southern container, as it contains the sanctum key, which you'll need in a bit along with the key from crypt two.
 | 
Take the sanctum key from its resting spot in the southernmost room. |
There are now two remaining areas to the vale: Kresselack's tomb, the area in which you'll need the two keys, and the ice cave. We'll hit the tomb first. Head straight north from crypt four, and you'll come to the tomb's entrance.
Once you're in the tomb, be on constant alert for fights; there are undead waiting for you everywhere. You can use one of the keys you picked up from the crypt two to enter the first door. Clear out the skeletons that attack you and clean up the southwest and southeast chambers first (watch out for the traps just inside each door). After plundering these areas, head to the western chamber, where you'll be attacked by zombies, tattered skeletons, and a wight. Watch out for the wight, as he can only be damaged by magic and magical weapons. Once you've eliminated the wight, be ready for the trap on the central looting point. Grab the key from the sarcophagus and head to the eastern room (which you can now open).
| 
The entrance to level 2 of the tomb is in the northeastern chamber. |
From the eastern room, you should emerge with the holy symbol of Myrkul, which will let you enter the northern chamber. In here, you'll meet Mytos, the guardian of the tomb, and his minions. Be sure to try to reason with him during the dialogue, as you'll be rewarded with experience before the battle begins. Try to take Mytos out first; if you engage the temple guardians, he'll pester you with spells.
| 
The lever opening the door to the third level is next to the pillar where my party is standing. |
After you've killed Mytos and his minions, move to the northwest and clear the archers from this area. Then, enter the northern chamber and take out Myrkul's sending (it can only be hit with magical weapons or magic). Then, proceed to the northeastern passage to the second level, being careful of the traps. There's a mummy through the door to the west (who's only susceptible to magic as usual) guarding a sarcophagus containing a key, which you'll need in level 2 of the tomb. After taking the key, proceed through the passageway to level 2. Watch out for a few arrow traps and some more weak guardians.
