NEVERNEATH

Neverneath

Lord Halueth's Questions

I prepare to enter the dungeon of Neverneath. First, I change my 6th level spells from Undeath to Death to two instances of Chain Lightning and two instances of Greater Stoneskin.

Neverneath will have quite a lot of Ice Mephits and Fire Mephits waiting for me. Individually Mephits are not tough at all and can be cut down easily. Fire Mephits like to use Burning Hands and Ice Mephits like to use cold-based attacks and Magic Missiles. It's still easy enough for Valeria to cut them down one by one.

I now start off at #7 on the map. The statues located at points 8 to 13 on the Neverneath map each ask a question demanding proof of loyalty to Neverwinter. If I choose the right answer, I get 200xp and am allowed to proceed straightaway to the next statue. If I get the question wrong, I am forced to go through a side passage and then fight Guardians of Neverneath. Guardians of Neverneath look like Iron Golems, but they don't have any construct immunities. They can be critically hit, blinded, slowed, and whatever else you can inflict on living fleshy creatures. The side passages may also have chests whereby I can score metal ingots or high value gems like Beljurils and King's Tears. However, the xp for killing the Guardians is nowhere near the 200xp a pop I get for answering each statue's question correctly, so I don't bother with the side passages.

The correct answers are:

If I refuse to swear fealty, the floating swords in the next room will attack. The xp for killing them is pitiful though. My preference is to lie while swearing fealty in order to get the 200xp and maintain Valeria's Chaotic Good alignment.

Lord Halueth's Tomb

Now I continue north to the room at #14, which is Lord Halueth's tomb. There will be chests around the perimeter. The contents of the chests, starting right and going around counter-clockwise, are as follows:

I then approach Lord Halueth's coffin from the north side, through the gap amongst the Floating Swords in order to avoid turning them hostile. The coffin itself will have a quest item called the Rod of Never, as well as the Blessing of the Daystar (Longsword +3, +5 vs. evil, +1d6 damage vs. evil).

Knight of Neverwinter

I go north through the exit at #15. Lord Nasher and a pair of his Royal Bodyguards are locked in combat with a Shadow Reaver. Valeria charges north through the next door, and drives off the Shadow Reaver with physical attacks. What follows is an extended dialogue with both Lord Nasher and Sir Nevalle whereby Valeria becomes a Knight of Neverwinter and the leader of the war effort against the King of Shadows.

I now also get the Neverwinter Nine Tunic (Chain Shirt +2, +2 Constitution, Expert Tactician, -10% arcane spell failure, Neverwinter Nine only), but I'll just sell it.

Valeria returns to Crossroad Keep, although her next priority is the Merchant Quarter.
