Am I too late for Shany?
   

I go down to the 4th level after seeing the cut scene with the priests, except I take my time getting down there. After stumbling around for a few minutes I hear Shany calling to save her. I go towards the sound of her voice and down a hall with a torch/lever/lock at the end. 3 priests come running out of this room towards me. There is also a *huge* red monster of some sort behind them. I run back with the priests chasing me as I heal and stop every once in a while to throw a fireball at them or slash them with my sword. When they're all finally dead, I go back to the room but the lever doesn't open it, and for a while I see parts of the huge red thing flail at me *thru* the wall, then silence. The room won't open. Am I too late? Do I miss much not doing this quest? Is it vital to the main quest? Thanks very much.

If you don't follow the priets somewhat closely and disrupt their plans soon after they open the secret door, you'll be too late for Shany. You'll know she is dead when a demon appears (the "huge red monster"), which is apparently summoned upon her sacrifice.

Saving Shany is a side quest, so ignoring it or failing to do it will in no way disrupt the main quest. However, if you are an experience-points junkie (like me), you will go back to an earlier saved game and rescue her, for it is worth a nice little 2500 XP and some free goodies from a grateful Maria (Shany's mother).

Saving Shany
   

OK... I think I'll have another go at it if I can find a reasonably close save. Thanks a lot for all the help.
