If you manage to reach Level 4 without engaging your enemies you will receive a Master Infiltrator feat (Hide +2, Move Silently +2) you need to avoid the high-up Yuan-Ti, as such meetings will raise an alarm.

On the second level you should start off by talking to Nessa. If you manage to convince her, she will tell you that there is a Calendar hidden in one of the rooms here and that it should help you reaching the next level. It's not necessary, but you may want to use your rogue skills and send your character to retrieve it. On your way you should be wary not to get noticed by a golem. The corridor is filled with traps which are worth disarming for the experience they provide. Once you get through the corridor approach the chest and take the Calendar. You can now enter the library to pick up some powerful spell scrolls. There is an Archivist, who will recognize you here, but you can convince him that he's wrong unless you want to start a fight.

You finally reached the final battle (or the second to final, if you decide to deal with Sa'Sani). Be sure that you are prepared for it. Spread the healing potions and coins of life throughout your party and buff your characters. You will listen to a conversation between Zehir and his servants, and the fight will begin. Start by killing the fanatics bombarding you with magic missiles and only after you're done with them you should switch to Herold and the Hierophant. Those two are really tough but killable if you'll keep an eye out on dying characters and use resurrection magic whenever necessary. Summoning spells will be a great help here. After the fight is over you will talk to Zehir himself. You won't be able to face him. You can now leave the area. You have three options now: you can finish the game at this point, continue exploring or return to Sa'Sani. If you decide to return to Sa'Sani you will be given the option of either fighting her, getting her to pay you for her life (50000 $) or making her promise that she won't hurt anyone again. If you decide to kill her, you will find: bracers (armor bonus +8), Magic Ring (armor bonus +3), magic amulet (Wisdom +6), Magic Ring (Freedom of Movement).
