6. DARK ELF CAVERN : 1 Level Volcanic Cave
  Before you can even take a step inside you'll be attacked by a group of
Salamanders.  First off, go around the corner in a southerly direction and meet
up with the Swanmays.  If you have a woman in your party she will recieve the
mark of the Swanmays as well as a special quest.  When you find the room full
of Salamanders, parlay slyly and you can open all six chests for some items and
mucho exps.  Now run along and earn some experience points by killing off the
Drow Fighters, the Drow Clerics and then the Drow Mages.  Standing outside the
door to point number 7, heal up and get enspelled for a battle with some
Efreets.  Follow the corridor around the corner to the point 8, jump in feet
first and kill off the guards and salamanders.  Heal, spell up, save and get
ready to face Crimdrac the Dracholich, hes no Thiszult, Rauglothgor or
Aghaztamn but hes still tough.  Get close and surround him from all sides and
hack away.  Becareful which spells you cast as he's immune to some, plus the
confined area.
