Neverwinter Nights Hints
How do I open the iron portcullises in the SE corner of the Uthgardt fort?
1 of 9: After you find the three portcullises, check out the nearby bookshelves.
2 of 9: Each unopenable iron portcullis has one.
3 of 9: If you click on a bookshelf, it'll tell you what kind of books are on it, and the last one will always be missing.
4 of 9: The missing books are all in the fort somewhere.
5 of 9: "Islegood's Complete History of Seafaring" is in a cabinet along the north wall of the big SW room.
6 of 9: "Islegood's Complete History of Flight" is in an armoire in the west-most of the two little NE bedrooms.
7 of 9: "Islegood's Complete History of Horses" is in a chest of drawers in the room west of Zokan's room.
8 of 9: When you have the book that a bookshelf needs, you'll get a green dialogue option to place the book when you click on the bookshelf.
9 of 9: Doing so will open the iron portcullis, allowing you access to some miscellaneous treasure.
