Problem restarting mercenary

Problem restarting mercenary difficulty in a higher level game.

Alright, so I'm halfway through, but I still need to do the mysterious level for Mercenary (I didn't kill ???). So I decided to pay that difficulty a visit, and do some side quests that have Big Chests as a reward (I haven't done Eva's there, for example.)

Anyway, it loads up normally, but then I start at the siege of Greylin Beach (WTF) with drevin as a 7th character in my party (at level ~75 :P ). The rest of my party is there, but when I click on them the camera floats to the brownish haze over the sae and I can't see or move them (save the 2nd character, who starts on shore with me (so I have 3 characters, me, #2, and Drevin.)) I can walk through the entire act I area but all the monsters are already killed, all the cutscenes have already happened, etc. Then, when I get to the area with the Rust Guard that's supposed to get frozen by the Morden mages, the cutscene doesn't happen. I can just walk past the statue and into the temple. I can't pick up the Aegis (though I can highlight it), and the Rust Guards just sit there crouched and ignore me.

Anyone have an idea what the hell?

This happened to me, too. So far as I could tell, there isn't any way to escape the beach, so you're probably stuck not being able to do those extra quests on mercenary.

About the ??? guy, is it possible to find him again without looking through the entire difficulty? Because I blew my chance of killing him and have everything else i need for the mysterious area.

There's a small chance he'll show up any time a rare item drops, so you could find him anywhere.
