How to use Beasts of Khorinis II
Beasts of Khorinis II is the minecrawler volume. Check Wolf's house first, or the Old Mine side tunnel near Aleph, then reach the end of the Minecrawler Nest in Chapter 2 for the Queen's pheromone gland. Bring the volume and gland to Cavalorn, then confirm Extract Organ before hunting Bloodflies, Lurkers, or Fire Lizards.
Treat Volume II as a time-sensitive route: check the book location early, keep the Minecrawler Nest objective in your plan, and save before the Cavalorn handoff.
The book and gland sit on different routes, and the nest section is a dangerous Chapter 2 trip. Do not spend LP or enter the nest without a weapon, healing, and a return save.
