I've been everywhere...I've found the note asking for rescue. I found the
explosive device, but the note also says I need to bring a Fire Arrow. I've
haven't found a fire arrow anywhere. Also, I've been down to the bottom of
the excavation to the big metal doors. My lockpicks don't work...so there
must be a key around??? Is this the entrance to the ruins the note speaks
about? If not, where are the ruins?

Thanks....

I'm about at the same point that you are.... except I found the key down
in the caves. If I remember correctly, there is a side tunnel off of
one of the main ones that ends in a pool of water. I believe that I
found the key in there on the bottom. Either that or I got it off of
the rat king when I knocked his ass out. But I'm pretty sure it was at
the bottom of the pool... along with a few other items that you may need
later on. I haven't found any fire arrows yet but I have gotten into
the ruins. I'm stuck though because I think that I need some rope
arrows that I don't have.

You don't actually find the fire arrow in this mission so don't bother
looking for it. There is a key for the doors at the bottom of the excavation
and it's found in the Rat King's caves, lying on the ground. You get into
that area through the underwater tunnels. Look for a cave with a bunch of
tiny rat people singing and then go through the tunnel at the back of that
cave into his area. Don't go to the ruins until you've completed all the
other objectives, as that is where the mission ends.
There are no rope arrows in the mission and no need for them.

I've finished everything in this one except for finding the treasure. I
had read a scroll from the guy who found it and then hid it saying that
the place he hid it was full of spiders. I found this area and whacked
all of the spiders and cleaned the palce out. I also found an area
thorough a small underwater tunnel that was a dead end that had some
treasure in it. So far though, this objective has not ticked off so I'm
either missing some of the items needed or there is a bug in this one
that prevents it from being completed. I've looked for hidden areas in
this area but still can't find anything.

Did you frob the gold rat on the headboard of the rat king's bed? That
opens up a small hole in the wall out just outside the bedroom. Also, if
you go out the rat king's bedroom and take a left, go the where the dead guy
is laying. That cavern has a secret treasure crypt in it...you just have to
frob a large mushroom to get it to open...
