Icewind Dale Hints
I've found Larrel again. How can I keep up with him?
1 of 9: You can't just follow him through the shortcut he takes.
2 of 9: You're going to have to take the long way through another one of the sub-towers on level 4.
3 of 9: Go to the third level of the sub-tower where you find Kaylessa, and take the passageway heading to the west.
4 of 9: You'll have to deal with a bunch of shadowed elves, but they shouldn't pose a problem now.
5 of 9: Once you make it to the other side, you'll be one level above where you might have seen Larrel before.
6 of 9: There's some mediocre treasure on this level. Get it if you want, and then head up.
7 of 9: You'll find yourself in a library. If you're so inclined, you can take out a bunch of books and read up on history.
8 of 9: The only useful one is Mythal Theory, which you can give to Orrick back in Kuldahar for a very nice item.
9 of 9: Once you're done here, go up one more level, and you'll find Larrel and the astrolabe.
