* A locked '''Sluice Gate''' must be opened to access the second half of the area. It cannot be lockpicked. To open the gate, either make a DC 25 [[Athletics]] check to turn the '''Sluice Valve''', or turn the '''Water Level Valve''' and '''Temperature Valve''' until they are both at the perfect level. Use the '''Emergency Release Valve''' if either level gets too high.

{{SpoilerBox|[[Minsc]] can be found here as part of the quest [[The High Harper]], along with various hostile [[Doppleganger|dopplegangers]] and Bhaalists. If saved, Minsc will subsequently break through a wall to a hidden area to the north, seeking [[Boo]], his animal companion. The first room in this area has a set of nonlootable artifacts, presumably mementos of the heroes that accompanied [[Gorion's Ward]] during the events of Baldur's Gate II. These include a halfling-sized warhammer, representing Mazzy Fentan; a turnip for Jan Jansen; a mailed fist for Keldorn Firecam; a pair of carved wooden wings for Aerie; and a cracked wooden mask, representing Dynaheir.
Beyond is another chamber where [[Boo]] can be found.}}
