Thanks. I've gotten through that and finished the level completely except that I'm just shy of the money required to get passed the guard at the staircase. I'm out of freeborn parties to kill and lost my Location Spell somewhere along the way, so I don't want to venture back into those evil rooms again. Not sure what to do. how to get more money or that that spell cast again without being in combat (since i have no one to combat with). any advice would be appreciated.
