Icewind Dale II Hints
How can I open the doors in the NE corner of the main cavern?
1 of 6: Those are the doors to the Z'hinda Citadel, which is your eventual goal for the Underdark area.
2 of 6: Before you have a chance of entering the citadel, you must fulfill Malavon Despana's quest of destroying the drow-to-drider conversion mechanism.
3 of 6: Just before teleporting away, Malavon will tell you that there's now a mind flayer near the citadel entrance who should have the doors opened to summon assistance when you attack.
4 of 6: Sure enough, Beelthot and a bunch of thralls are standing around just outside the doors.
5 of 6: Talk to Beelthot and tick him off.
6 of 6: After you kill him and all of his thralls, the doors into the citadel will be open.
