I agree, that quest is full of logical errors. I even cheated in ED (before DKS) and rescued them and got the key. They were L-27 Black Ring and I was only L-11. Afterwards, I hunted for the mine enterance for hours and could not find it. Later it turns out, one can only fly up to the mine enterance. Sheeesh!

I'd like to close by quoting Bellegar's famous last rhyme:

"Cursed be the mother that bred thee!
The wench must have been a hell-spawned banshee!"
