I imagine the dragon will still be there... it took me a couple tries (and cries of frustration) to beat him, but the proper combination of summons, defensive magics works wonders. Of course, so does a couple "reduce resistances" and a feeblemind. The dragon is a lot less imposing when you've rendered it inert.
Good luck and happy fighting!

You have to defeat the Shadow Dragon to get one of the artifacts for Crom Faeyr if you want to forge it (the Scroll, I think).
The way I beat the Shadow Dragon at a low level, Lioness, was to first of all summon some fodder for it. It immediately wasted it's death spell on them...hooray, no more death spell. I summoned more fodder and placed them in front of the dragon, then pumped up my group with speed, defensive harmony, resist fear (against Dragon Fear), etc., etc. ... and put them behind the dragon.
I then had the "fodder" (ogres) attack the Dragon. While she was countering them, I got quite a few stabs in on her...then when she turned on us, I was more than 3/4 of the way to killing her. I had Nalia and Aerie breaching and spell thrusting on her, and Anomen, my main character, and Minsc whacking on her.
Almost lost Aerie, but not quite. Dragon went down without a reload. Lucky!
