I have the words to enter the Tomb of Souls in my log but when I get to there it doesn't come up in the dialog box. Do I need to do something prior to entering?
If you haven't actually done the quest to get the words yet, then you should go do that.

Sir Edmund:"Should you obey the lord who asks you to put a village of innocents to the torch? Is that chivalrous? Is it noble?" Me:"It's a great way to get promoted, I know that much."
Did you place the vial of blood on the altar in the Vale of Ruin? That's the quest you need to complete. You should look [url="http://www.gamebanshee.com/dungeonlords/walkthrough/summary.php"]here[/url] if you think you might have missed a step somewhere.
