I made a deal wwith the Duergar leader to clear out the caves with monsters.
However, he doesnt seem to realize I have done the job! Is this a bug or something? Can anyone help?

you might have missed a monster or two.
recheck all the caverns.

if that doesn't help, reload.

There is a bug; if you allow the slimes to split too much (e.g. hit them without killing them outright), it messes up the dialogue and you can't get the proper dialogue string. I'm not sure if the patch fixes this or not - are you patched?

The XP and monetary reward isn't a lot. You may be able to get the items by simply wiping out the Duergar.

You will get at least one extra item for clearing ot the caves you won't get if you just wipe them out and an additional mission to kill the monks (what gives you another bonus item you just get this way) afterwards you can kill the duergars (but killing the monks won't give much (no items, little EXP and you kill a good merchant!)

This often happens to me - it is pretty difficult to avoid this in HoF mode!

Easiest way to fix this is using the cheat console:

ctrlaltdelete:SetGlobal("AR5101_MONSTERS_DEAD","GLOBAL",1)

(I even have this written down, because those jellies won't die quick enough!)

Another trick I've used, is to go back up into the white dragon cave, and then come back down again. This can sometimes clear whatever bug is causing this hangup.
