Simple answer to a simple problem.

Well, I always imagined the Cowled Wizards to have a relative simple method of getting to Spellhold. After all, following the "They are deviants, let them rot in Spellhold"-scene Imoen, Irenicus and some of the Cowled Wizards Dimension Door away to an unknown location. While this could very well be some location nearby, it could also be an instant teleportation to Spellhold. Of course this is just speculation. I don't know if there's a distantial limit to the Dimension Door spell, and I don't know if the Cowled Wizards face the same entry problems the PC has (Spellhold only accesible through Desharik and/or the wardstone carried by Perth the Adept).
Another option could be that one of the Cowled Wizards got away. Irenicus may have taken over, but we don't know if he slaughtered
every last one of the Cowled Wizards (CW). For all we know, the two CW's that were killed (I thought they were murdered anyway) in the "I cannot be caged, I cannot be controlled. Know that as you die, ever pathetic, ever fools"-scene were the only ones to die by the hands of our favorite evil archmage.
If the Cowled Wizards were informed Spellhold was lost to them, they wouldn't be itchy to reconquer the place themselves. We know for a fact that they are afraid of Irenicus' powers ("This mage's power's immense!" "He took down four of us before we could contain him!"), so it would be pretty plausible to assume they are eager to throw in someone else in order to save their own hides.
Your thoughts?
