Thanks to all for your timely and helpful replies. Being anxious to crack these conundrums, I found enough info to help me through these parts on Rick Volberding's "W&W Help & Assistance Page," but it's good to know I can get some input here, too. To Packrat---no, I paid for the "Tome of Many Omissions," which is why it would be nice if it were written better. Apparently, there are set lever combinations to open the doors in the prison, but the doors they open and which cell the idol's in are random. For example, Volberding says it's in the 5th cell and the guide says it's in the 4th one, but I found it in the 2nd one. It's also important to note that the reset position of the levers is down, not up, and that, besides potentially spending days trying one thing after another, you need a gold serpent coin for each attempt. Not my idea of fun. But I'm pretty happy right now. Got the 4th Monkey Idol, got into Kreug's study, got the quest items there, then went back to town, where my Ratling Rogue was made a Bard. Will be returning to the temple soon to perform the ritual and kill Xydussa and Elyssa. I'd feel a little better about that if I hadn't been bit in the ass by a cobra right after Kerah's statue said she'd watch over me. Oh well . . . what do you expect from a statue?
