Once out of the Underdark, I had two immediate priorities.

Dump Solaufein at the NPC inn, and get my long overdued Stronghold. In the process of getting my Stronghold however, I would need to recruit Edwin and do his Nether Scroll quest.

Since this is Chapter 06, it immediately posed a problem. I would need to face off Bodhi's ambush in the Graveyard District, AND fight though her base in order to get Edwin's Nether Scroll. Eych.

One weak point of Vampires. They cannot see invisible units. Cue a simultaneous consumption of Potions of Invisibility as the whole party vanishes before their very eyes.

Since I was trying out the Items Upgrades mod for the first time, I had on hand, the Improved Daystar and Quintus. Daystar in the main-hand, Quintus in the off-hand.

One... Two... Three... FOUR.

Cookie if you get the reference.

The lair itself was not that hard. With the aid of Drizzt and Arkanis, the vampires were more or less swept away from our path. I did not go down though, since I wanted to finish up the rest of the quests with Imoen first. Not to mention Nalia's, Mazzy's and Cernd's subquests.

Nether Scroll in hand, I travelled back and forth between the Druid Grove and Athkhala to transform Edwin into Edwina. Transformation done, I dumped her in the NPC inn.

Farewell, Solaufein.
Farewell, Edwina.

Up next. De'Arnise Keep and the predictablity( aka failure) of 'Improved' Mods( aka a Stoneskinless, Mirror Imageless, and more or less totally & utterly defenseless Imoen can still right stand next to a Red Dragon casting spells on it without getting hurt or targetted).

Cheers.
