Icewind Dale II Hints
Stop Hiepherus and his undead abominations.
1 of 8: Hiepherus is the "Bane's Hand" guy that appears and threatens you when you first start the chapter.
2 of 8: He's holed up in Hrothgar's Glen, which is behind the large locked gate that's near the watchtower.
3 of 8: To figure out how to open that gate and get at Hiepherus, enter the watchtower and talk to Nathanial and Jermsy.
4 of 8: Volunteer to help put an end to the undead infestation, and they'll modify the ward on the glen's gate to allow you to pass through it.
5 of 8: Enter the glen and kill off all of the undead in the area.
6 of 8: Then go through the big door at the NE end of the glen to find Hiepherus' lair.
7 of 8: Kill him and all of his cronies, then search the place. (There's a secret treasure under the big hand altar.)
8 of 8: Check through the watchtower area to make sure all the undead there are redead, then report back to Jermsy in the watchtower to finish the quest and get your reward.
