Icewind Dale Hints
Finding the Second Piece
1 of 6: This piece can be found in the sub-tower entered by going to the south staircase on level 4.
2 of 6: You'll meet an elven priestess here named Denaini who will ask you to kill her insane comrades.
3 of 6: In this tower, you will have to fight a lot of shadowed elven priests and acolytes.
4 of 6: They don't attack you until you get close, though, so use your initiative to send of some area effect spells to greatly tip the scales of the battles here in your favor.
5 of 6: The tower has four levels, but the fourth one is optional, and just has a few more priests to kill and a little treasure.
6 of 6: The actual machine piece is on the third level, in a treasure chest on the altar-like structure.
