I'm been taking a stroll through SoBH but now I'm really stuck. I checked out all the areas in Part 1 and killed anything I came across. I missed a lot of quest clues due to my philosophy of "if you don't have a name you're not worth talking to" philosophy (who wants to strike up a conversation with "random commoner #44). This combined with my habit of drinking while playing games has left me at a point in which I can't return to the main game or finish SoBH.

I cleared all the areas (including Bone Hill itself), then tried to leave, heard about the theft/murders, talked to Welcar (or whatever his name is, the guy who guards the warehouses 24/7) and then the bartender who says that the Gnome is acting strangely. I, of course, walked to the lighthouse and prepared to put the miserable creature out of it's misery and take whatever random piece of paper was needed to get the Wizard Guy (Peltar?) to take me back to the main land but the door has the magical "story stopping" lock. Now I don't really know what to do. Can get in. Can't hack'n'slash. Can't find an answer on this forum.

Perhaps I'll be more sober tomorrow and I'll figure it out within minutes. Perhaps I need to talk to that random commoner or maybe I just need a giant spoiler to let me get my hands on that Gnome. Either way and help, suggestions or comments are appreciated (besides "don't drink and game").

P.S. One a side note, I have the crazy lighting staff from Bone Hill (the one with times per day Chain Lighting and Lightning Bolt, but it doesn't seem to work. Is that a bug or what?

How to get into the lighthouse

Did you find the graveyard etc. as to my remembrance you need to go through there to get to the sewers, from which you get to the light house. Now to get to the sewers...

I'll take a look at that staff. Might be a bug. I've never actually used it myself.

After you spoke with Zelmar about his theft, his dialog should guide you over to speak with Smyth the storekeeper next door. You should probably go talk with Smyth. Another way would be to talk with Pelltar if you have the handwritten map with you. Or discovering Bomarc via Ravella will also open the Lighthouse.
