2 questions regarding the Underdark..

Am I right in assuming that there is no templeservices in Ust Natha/Underdark? I tried talking to several of the temple-staff, but no-one wants to sell/heal apparently.. Just wondering if it's just me that's blind?

Also.. Once I have defeated all enemies in the fighting pit in the tavern (the one to the left, with all the drow, not the beholder/sahuagin/umberhulk/nabassu pit) - I can't save my game in the tavern anymore, it keep saying that there is monsters about (and there isn't, I made certain that they died everyone of them).. what to do?

Is this normal??

Summons remain when their owner dies, did you make sure that the arena is empty?

I don't think there are any temple services in the Underdark either.

maybe you accidentally hit an NPC with a spell?

there are no enemies left whatsoever, I looked all over the place .. and I didn't hit anyone with any spells ( I usually just hack them to pieces instead of actually USING my magespells

) -I tried reloading some other savegames from the tavern, with other characters, it's the same problem there as well. As soon as I have completed the last mage-challenge, the game won't save anymore.?? (well obviousely it hasn't got any problems with the autosave, but still, it's annoying?)

As soon as I am nearing the pit, the "fighting-music" starts as well... but no monsters to be seen. (and detect evil isn't really helping any)

Sigh.. Come to think about it- I am as usual getting my rear kicked from Raevilin Strathi (SPOILER??))

(crazy mage in the Imprisonment Dome that you can heal)

HOW do you manage to get up to him and heal him BEFORE he imprisones you and/or everyone else in the area??
I tried to get Aerie up infront of him, improved invisible, with cloak of non-detection AND sanctuary - he STILL saw her cast the healing spell and cast imprison ASAP... (without true seeing, I don't get it?) HOW are you supposed to get through all of those spells without to much cheating? (I regard the whole non-detection/inv/sanctuary as cheat,- since I shouldn't have known about it, but it was my best shot, and it failed, miserably)

Also - Aerie was wearing the Robe of Vecna, as well as the Amulet of Power, so her casting time should be reduced by 5 - and he's still able to cast imprisonment first? I really really want his casting times

Spell Immunity: Abjuration. You'll be avoiding Imprisonment better than a sicilian mafioso.
You can also bait him with another crew mate, cast Heal with Aerie (since he has spent his round casting Imprisonment on the bait), and bring back your friend with Freedom later on (there's a dwarf selling some scrolls near the entrance of the Underdark).

I have no idea how he can see through Improved Invisibility. Are you sure it hasn't been dispelled? Cloak of Non-detection is supposed to protect against True Sight as well.
Creatures such as liches use an affect (0xC1), but it seems that Raevilin Strathi doesn't.

I don't know how he can cast Imprisonment instantly either.

Yes, he doesn't cast True Seeing before AFTER casting imprisonment - and afaik sanctuary should not be disabled by itself if you only cast beneficial spells (as Heal)... So confused

Spell Immunity... off course. I have never used that spell before, don't know why actually.. Although that is as cheesy as the invisibility thing LOL... buut better cheesed than dead
