Icewind Dale Hints
How can I help the slaves?
1 of 11: Once you find the slave pens, talk to the slave named Davin.
2 of 11: He'll tell you about how the slaves are sacrificed to a beast to the south of the pens.
3 of 11: Agree to help him, and search around the level until you find the sacrificial altar.
4 of 11: The alter is a bit northeast of Joril's throne room.
5 of 11: Right of the altar you will find the Wyrms. Talk to the biggest one, and you'll end up fighting them.
6 of 11: It's actually not terribly tough. Try not to just charge in, because they can be tough if they get around you.
7 of 11: Once you've killed them, go back to Davin for a ton of XP.
8 of 11: He'll then ask you to kill all the other monsters in the cave.
9 of 11: So go to it. You'll have to kill some Yetis and Trolls.
10 of 11: To the south, you'll find a worshipper of Auril, whom you'll have to kill. This fight can be kind of annoying if you take to long too kill the spellcaster. Go for him first and you shouldn't have too much trouble.
11 of 11: Once everything is cleared out return to Davin and the slaves will be free.
