Icewind Dale Game Guide
Return to Gareth, and deliver the key to him. You'll receive some experience, and you can loot the basement. You'll find a note from Joril, leader of the Trolls, to Kerish saying that he has taken his father's place as 'one of the chosen six,' on the table next to Gareth. Hmm. I think we could use his badge. Let's go get it. You will first have to deal with the angry Frost Salamanders, however. Exit through one of the southern doors, and be prepared for battle. Once you have vanquished your enemies, proceed through the now-open central northern door. This will take you to a sort of crossroads area, with 4 exits. The one you just emerged from, in the northwest, leads to the Temple area, while the northeastern goes back to the world map. The southwestern exit leads back to the main icy area you began the chapter on, and the southeastern exit goes to Lower Dorn's Deep. For now, take the southwestern exit; we need to grab Joril's badge before we're ready for the Lower Deep.

This location leads to the Temple, the world map, Lower Dorn's Deep, and the Wyrm's Tooth main area.
If you wish, you can go back to the museum where Karish and his minions hang out and kill them for some experience. (If you return to Vera and tell her that the slaves have been freed, you'll receive yet another load of experience) Return to the broken bridge, and you'll now be able to fix it, since you got the engineering book from Soth. (If you failed to get it, you can return to the museum basement and grab it from the western side) Cross the bridge, and enter the cave ready for battle.

You'll come upon a pack of Winter Wolves. Kill them and head through the northern hole (don't go west yet, as there be large bad guys over yonder). Waiting up north is a group of Ice Trolls, so be sure you have fire / acid magic stocked up. Once they're dead, head west for a battle with Kontik, a friend of Lysan. Seeing how you dispatched Lysan earlier, Kontik won't be very friendly. Be very thorough preparing for this battle, as Kontik's Ice Knights are amazing fighters. Summon the most powerful creatures you can to aid you, and Bless and Haste your party before the battle. Be sure to loot the bodies afterward as well, as Kontik drops some magnificent items, and the Knights are carrying gold. Kill Kontik and her minions, and then continue west through the hole to the northwest.
