Durlag's Tower Catacombs Level 4

Talk to Durlag's phantom, then head west through a lava room and turn north. Take out the spiders in the large room, and answer the stone golem's questions (eldest son=Kiel; last name of Durlad=trollkiller; second name of his father=Bolher; mother of clan=Islanne), and then talk to the other golems and answer the question (west, south, east, north). In the room with the rune carpet, if you haven't found the bone rune yet just walk around the outside of the carpet. There's some nice items in the chests there, but your main goal is to advance to talk to the stone golems (answer: it began with Durlag and his need for a home…). East of Durlag's phantom, there's a secret door leading to some natural caverns, and to the west there's a room with Grael, who guards the compass runestone, which you need to get to the throne room to the far east of this level. Enter the throne room and talk to the stone golems (answer: Durlag is to blame, although the blame begins with the intruders…).

Mirror, mirror. If you open it when the demonknight is around, you'll summon some mirrorfiends that will attack the demonknight and your party, sparing your party members the brunt of his fireball attacks.

Talk again to Durlag's phantom, and follow him to the demonknight's room. Using the mirror is a bit risky, since you may be in worse shape as a result, but the mirror fiends will keep the demonknight occupied and may even take him out. If you take him on alone, spread your party out on the top level, and haste your party so that they can get missile attacks in quickly. Cast a variety of protection spells on your party in preparation for this battle (chant, bless, protection from evil, fire) and use any beneficial potions (giant strength and heroism for fighters, oil of speed for all members). Release Dalton and return to Ulgoth's Beard. Make sure you're in good shape prior to returning to the town … Your battles aren't over yet…
