Mm... Where are your proficiencies? Have you any in Longswords, perhaps? Even if not, you should go and fetch Daystar. You can justify it easily. Imagine a fighter having a drink before the battle. Maybe even confiding in the bartender bit as to the nature of his quest. The bartender tilts his head and says that, you know, it's funny. He's always heard of an ancient treasure reputed to be the bane of the living dead hidden somewhere near the gates to Athkatla. You promptly go to investigate, you thrash the lich, and all is well with the world.
Unless, of course, you get killed by the lich. It's just a suggestion.
