Incidentally, if you sneak up the first set of stairs, and can take out the level 5 mage in the first round - which is doable for most starting presets - then the normal scripted event doesn't trigger, and you get to fight with a couple of level 9 cultists instead of the useless undead summons. Much more interesting fight. Very hard at that level, but again. Doable.
And there's no starstone, which would have been careless and bad. The end of tomb conversation is no longer coherent, but nothing story-related really breaks.
No arrows, though.
