==Objectives==

* We signed Raphael's deal but are having second thoughts about giving the ultra-powerful Crown of Karsus to a devil. Raphael is smart, but perhaps he can be outsmarted: if we could get into the House of Hope and destroy our contract, that would void the deal.

* We talked with Korrilla and learned of a way into the House of Hope: it seems there's a diabolist somewhere in Baldur's Gate who knows how to get in.

* The orthon Yurgir, whom we aided in the Shar Temple, visited our camp with some advice about our infernal contract. He told us that in the Lower City there is a diabolist named Helsik who can get us into the House of Hope.

* We learned that in the Lower City there is a diabolist named Helsik who helped Gortash open a portal into the Hells. Perhaps she can help us get into Raphael's House of Hope.

* We found a shop called Devil's Fee run by a diabolist named Helsik. Perhaps she can help us get into Raphael's House of Hope.

* We talked to Helsik and persuaded her to help us get into the House of Hope. She gave us a grimoire that describes a ritual that will open a portal to the Hells.

* We acquired a grimoire that describes a ritual that will open a portal to the Hells. If we follow its instructions, that may enable us to get into Raphael's House of Hope.

* We completed a ritual that opened a portal to the Hells. We should use it to enter the House of Hope.

* We have entered the House of Hope. Now to find our contract.

* We met Hope, the mad spirit of the House, who told us we'll find our contract in the Archive.

* We found Raphael's notes in the safe in his Boudoir, and learned how to access the treasures in the Archive. That's where we'll find our contract.

* We found our contract, but it's locked behind an impenetrable magic field. We must find a way to deactivate it.

* The Archivist wouldn't tell us how to deactivate the magic field, but we might find an answer in Raphael's Boudoir.

* We learned of Raphael's boudoir. We should find a way to gain access to it - it may hold answers.

* We obtained the password to deactivate the contract's magic field. We should return to the Archive.

* We found the contract. It's protected by an impenetrable magic field, but we learned the password to deactivate it.

* We used the password to deactivate the magic field, and can now destroy our contract. But we were told that Raphael will know what we've done, so we must be ready.

* We can no longer get to the House of Hope. Now we are bound to fulfil the terms of our deal with Raphael.

* We destroyed our infernal contract with Raphael. Now we have no obligation to give him the Crown of Karsus.
