need door & spell info

Recently addicted to IWD2, I am trying to conclude the second chapter of the game.
In the ice temple, I cleared about every ennemy on the 2 levels, including the 3 prietress. The only thing I have left to do (save the battle room where I completed the first 3 levels) is to banish a certain spirit as I could read in the walkthrough.
The thing is, I cannot open its door. (location #13 on the walkthrough's map). I properly use the prism, oriented north, and the lightning bolt I flash goes until it hits the door. But the door doesn't open and when I try to open it it says sgth like "embrace the shadows" (got french text).

Any help would be appreciated.


Second, during the fight with the 3rd prietress, Oria, I got cast sgth on two of my party members that gave them "energy absorbtion". They now have less hp and a "-" symbol on their character. I would gladly get rid of it but have no clue how.

Thanks.

I dont recal the exact spell used, but this is either an energy drain or level drain effect. either way fix it with a "resoration" or "lesser restoration" spell, cleric have it, or you can get them from temples.

 

There is a stairs which allow you to say a magical word to travel. Say something from priestess (load and try until you get the correct) and it will teleport you near the Altar room, near the Shadow over the door. Embrace it(have someone walk on it and to the door, they will be hurt if they are good aligned) and the door which says 'Embrace the Shadow' will be opened. Exit and shoot the Prism Device with correct angle to shoot the Altar Door. The door will open, go in and Banish the evil tempest. Have fun...

OH BTW it is energy drain, -5 max HP and -1 to all rolls(NOT that deadly like in BG2 but kinda annoying) cast Restoration(lesser or greater) and it will heal. There are healers, scrolls, potions for it as well.

 

many thanks for the insight
