YES! there is a way you can be friendly with the petrified drow and talk to them!

(I have no idea if this was relevant but I was wearing a female drow disguise at the time...)

First, you go up to the wizard drow (His name is Dhourn Initiate of the living library) before the spectator pops up (DO NOT EXAMINE HIM) then unpetrify ONLY him (DO NOT UNPETRIFY THE OTHERS.) Let the spectator kill him (don't kill him yourself) and try to kill the spectator immediately.

One of the drow will have a full conversation with you and you will be on friendly terms with them.

Current play through they all go friendly if you kill the spectator and don't fight them.

Not sure if that's every time, or if you just do it via sneaking and luring the spectator away like I did, but there was nothing fancy involved afterwards. They were all friendly and talked to me (half elf) without any disguises or etc.

But did you talk to Dhourn? He's the one who initiates the hostility after the spectator is gone.

You can brown beat Dhourn as a Female Drow, not sure if you can do it any other way.

Hmmm not really sure now. The spectator did kill one of them, so maybe that was why.

Dhourn is troublesome, what is a mercenary without a master?
