"Mystra is troubled but can not say why. Shar hates Mystra and gives the assassin Cyric a black cloak. The assassin steals upon the White Queen. She can't see him gliding through the shadows. The sword screams. The White Queen falls. The tree burns and thrashes in agony. Branches break. Branches twist and grow together....the Weave falls into shadow."
-Alaundo's prophecy,The death of Mystra.
"It is the doom of men that they never know quite enough wisdom, until it is too late."
-Elminster of Shadowdale
Virtually none of Faerun will remain unaffected by the Spellplague. Thousands of mages will be destroyed or go insane. With Mystra's death, the Weave, the universal structure of arcane magic, will convulse. Toril will be forever changed.
What is to come will be darker still...the Shadovar.
Empires will fall and new ones will rise. Many a hero will be lost to us. Only to be replaced by another champion. This is a dark time that needs, valor, might and courage.

Special shout to my peeps in New York Oscar and Meliza Nues!!!!! You guys are very important to me.
This is a link to the Project Q page. This is a Project Q mod. You will have to download it all. I would not have you do this, if it was not worth the time and the effort. Special thanks to the authors of Project Q who did fantastic work here!
This is part 2 of Into the Darkness. This picks up where Elventree left off. It also gives a professional ending to the game. There's a read me file with the mod.

appearance problems ------------------- i just fired up this mod, looking forward to playing. looks like you've done some fancy 2da work here. unfortunately it breaks a few things. the icon appearances of all of my character's jewelry and all of her traps are wrong. the traps all look like spike traps, and the jewelry -- both rings and amulets -- have the standard dull-gray '0' model for everything. converting the traps to your icons is easy: just set the traps and recover them again. however, there's no clear way to modify the appearances of the jewelry. changing the model type for rings and amulets back to 'simple' [i.e., 0] in baseitems.2da fixes the problem, but i assume you made this change for a reason, such as creating new items w/3-part appearances, and my fix would break that... this is pretty much a show-stopper for me, there's no way i can play w/every single item having the same appearance; i don't want to spend years searching for the right item when i'm in the middle of combat. how can i put the appearances back to the standard appearance w/o breaking anything?

Fantastic mod! The storyline and dialogue was excellent. There are a few bugs which I notified the author about, but overall very playable. There are many great cutscenes. A lot of time went into this mod and it is very worth checking out. A must play. Note: I would start the game a little higher than 15th level or have excellent equipment (first battle is pretty tough). _________________________ Defeat the Black Knights! Play Phantasie

Hey Bow36i3, Make sure you have all the contetn from the Project Q page. No need to use the updater. Just download all the haks for heads, monsters, armor extr. I could be wrong but it sounds like you are missing something. _________________________ Let's not mince words. Let us say what we really mean to say.

Hey Ken just e-mailed me and said he loved the vid Udasu. He is having a hard time getting on the Vault for some reason because he is in Mexico. Great fight sequences and not bad animation either. Jarlaxle's hat needs some work though. Do you have anymore of these? It was really cool. Ken liked the Artemis fight. We both agreed Regis looked too cute though. _________________________ Let's not mince words. Let us say what we really mean to say.

Just started playing, looks awesome. I've got a problem though... some of the graphics are messed up... like the new heads (probably the kotor ones) are missing and one of the armors found near the beginning of the module is missing legs. Any ideas...? I used to occasionally get problems like this a few years ago... but no recently.

Besides don't let that be a hang up. The crypts under Shadowdale are only a sidequest. The rest of the game gets even better and is free of bugs. This one is a must. I felt like I was playing Baldur's Gate series all over again........only this was better!!!! _________________________ Let's not mince words. Let us say what we really mean to say.

Gather all of the items (all four of them) return to the statue. The vauriables scripted will register you have all four items and...presto! The door will open. It did for me at least. Remember the door is glowing red. When it stops glowing, that means you can go open it. Hope this helps Luspr. :) _________________________ Let's not mince words.

Thanks for trying to help out. My problem is not the pieces (I have them all) but that the placeable cannot be interacted with.

Dear Luspr and Seekwhence, The door to the crypts can be opened. Just find the four symbols of Bane. I did it. The fourth symbol is behind the......... Elventree is very big and confusing. I am sure it does not help matters any that an army of Zhentarim are attacking. These locations are unlocked after the big battle. They were for me at least. It seems they are unlocked after certain choices too. So if it appears you do not give a damn about anyone but yourself, don't expect to be invited to the big battle and the Soul Tree tower. _________________________ Let's not mince words.
