    I'm playing through for the second time, and I'd like to collect Imoen as soon as possible. So I guess my question is, as the chapters advance, do the side quests become unavailable. Can I go back and do early side quests after coming out of underdark? Thanks much.

    I think you can go back to all of them in chapter 6.

    You can do any of the side quests before or after chapter 6. Your choice.

    Also, on a side note, any strongholds you have will be halted while you are gone.

    The Ranger stronghold isn't halted, and I'm pretty sure the Thief one isn't as well.

    Actually, as regards strongholds, regardless of how long you are gone, the game considers your time as one week game time - even if you took your sweet time and a month has passed. This is to prevent you from losing your strongholds. Any stronghold you have will advance by one week's time while you are gone, but you won't lose them, unless you were negligent before going. For example, if you have the thief stronghold, the quartermaster has been awaiting your dues for a week, and at that point you go to Spellhold without paying first, you just might lose your stronghold. Other than that, there's no way you'll lose your stronghold during chapters 4-5 when you aren't around.
