Someone please PM me the storyline

Hi there.
I played through part of the Story Mode, but reached some door inside Dragonspear Castle which I cannot open nor know where the key is. I don't care for the gameplay nor do I want to spend my time playing this anymore, I just want to know the story, so yeah... And since the people who make playthroughs haven't reached anywhere near the end yet, I'm requesting help here instead :-).
I think the writing is decent, but I can't get myself to play railroad BG (I only ever liked BG 1's open feel). So that's basically why I just want to know the story. As stated in the title: would anyone be able to PM me the story? (i.e. what happens in after you enter Dragonspear castle area). The reason for a private message is obviously to not spoil the plot for others.
Thank you in advance, and hope you all enjoy actually playing the expansion unlike myself.

Sarevok's Minions: Never!
Charname: Your choice. *skewer*
----------
Charname: Well, all trace of Sarevok is wiped out. Everyone I fought so long with has abandoned me. All I have left is this nice penthouse suite in the ducal palace and Imoen.
Imoen: Our suite is under attack by assassins! Argh. *Passes out with dagger in back*
Charname: You gotta be kidding me!
-----------
Charname: Okay, so some punks broke into my home, looking for me. Imoen's picked the worst time in the world to dual-class into a mage, so I need you brave and decidedly few friends to help me deal with a morally ambiguous crusader in the north. Who's with me!
Tiax: Cyric says "Screw you!"!!
Rasaad: I'd love to, but somehow as a monk I feel obligated to tend the wounded.
Garrick: I vote yes, but my hormones rule the majority.
Corran: Ditto.
Safana: As long as it takes me away from Corran.
Minsc: We three say YES! to adventure!
Dynaheir: 'Tis a worthy goal, but wouldst thy please not count thine hamster?
Corwin: I was already part of this expedition.
Viconia: I've already signed up. Maybe you should come with me.
------------
Charname: Here's the bridge. Wow, this trip's going to be shorter than I thought. Already halfway the-
Twitchy McFireball: The Bhaalspawn! (S)He's here! Arhgh! *Blows up bridge*
Charname: ... already almost a quarter of the way there. Yay. I should shoot you, now.
Caelar: Since you won't, why don't you join my Crusade?
Charname: You know your goal is frickin' insane, right?
Caelar: Hater. Have fun going the long way.
------------
Charname: So, a temple of Bhaal now? Wonderful. I get to visit all the really choice venues.
Priestess of Bhaal: You were born here! Gorion stole you! Robbed you of your true purpose!
Charname: That's... suspiciously convenient. Well, I'll just be taking this ward stone and leaving you to rot.
-------------
Charname: Khalid! Buddy! You're telling me that, when this keep here gets attacked by a thus far unstoppable crusade, you step up and take charge of its defense?
Khalid: Y-y-yes. It sounds k-kind of s-stupid when you put it like t-t-that.
Charname: That sounds pretty darn badass to me.
Khalid: R-really? P-pity nob-body will give c-credit for it.
Charname: Sad but true. Well, let's break this siege keeping us from Dragonspear!
--------------
Charname: Huh? Wha-what just happened?
Corwin: You just burnt the symbol of Bhaal into across the face of the bridge.
Everyone: Bhaalspawn! Bhaalspawn! BHAALSPAWN!
Charname: Um. Yeah? Never lied about that. It's like you've never seen the child of a dead evil god before.
Corwin: They have. Sarevok. That's why they're getting worried.
---------------
Charname: Within spitting distance of the castle at last! Nice camp they've set up.
Noble Twerp: Hey, you! You work for me now! Go put some explosives under the castle and dump poison in the well!
Charname: Way to keep the moral high ground, Twerp.
Noble Twerp: It's what I do.
----------------
Charname: So, you're telling me that our enemy is a good person being manipulated by a villain.
Ghost: Yep. He's a bastard.
Charname: Well, thank gods no villain will ever play me like that.
Hooded Stranger voiced by David Warner: Heavens forbid.
-----------------
Caelar: Hear me! I'll end this crusade peacefully! I just need the Bhaalspawn to help me on a holy quest!
Noble Twerp: It could work.
Charname: Sounds legit.
Corwin: No. We'll find another way.
Charname: Another way? She's offering to end this right now and all I have to do is what I normally do. Why do we need another way?
Noble Twerp: No, it's true. This is D&D, after all. This is no place for peaceful resolutions.
Charname: I want to go.
Everyone: NO!!!
Caelar: I hoped you'd be a friend, Charname. I guess you're just my enemy after all. Prepare for war.
Charname: Nice going, jackasses.
------------------
Charname: Huff... huff... I think I just killed half Caelar's army... Whew! Yeah, you guys just sit by the fire while this raid keeps going on. I don't need any help. Jerks.
Edwin: It seemed you had everything well in hand. (The fool never leveled us up to begin with.)
Charname: Fine, whatever. Dragonspear ho!
------------------
Charname: Caelar! I've broken your battlements, I've crushed your men, and I've reached the inner sanctum of your castle.
Caelar: Charname! Just in time to help!
Charname: You... have an odd definition of enemy, don't you.
Caelar: We just need a little of your blood. Then we can save the souls of the people trapped in hell.
Charname: Seems legit.
Hephernaan: Ha! You played right into my hands, the both of you!
Charname: Oh. Right. I was meaning to mention that. Heph is a bad guy, don't trust him.
Caelar: Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!
Hephernaan: Mine is an evil laugh!
------------------
Minsc: So here we are in hell again, on the hunt for great evil!
Dynaheir: Again? I remember none of this.
Minsc: Ah... I see now! These stories were told out of order!
Dynaheir: Thou art surely loosing it.
Minsc: Really, it's all about continuity in heroic adventuring.
------------------
Charname: Caelar! We're here to settle affairs! We... oh.
Cameo Devil: Ah, more guests.
Charname: Um... what's going on here?
Cameo Devil: Oh, you know how it is. Spoiled brat thinks she's big time, she gets sent to clean the library as punishment, she summons a devil, I take her soul. Pretty standard fare, I find. Sadly, I traded her for her uncle. It's nice to have her back. She really brings out the color in my throne room.
Caelar: In fairness, I was eight.
Charname: Okay, new plan. Kill the devil, sort this out when we get home.
Caelar: I can live with that.
------------------
Caelar: Now the cameo is dead, I can do what I set out to do. Free my uncle.
Charname: I thought this was about all the souls taken in the last Dragonspear war.
Caelar: Screw 'em! Er... I would have saved them if I could, of course, but...
Charname: You're not exactly... heroic... are you?
Caelar's Uncle: No. No she is not.
Caelar: What? I'd do it again in a heartbeat.
Caelar's Uncle: So very, very, very not heroic.
------------------
Caelar: Here's the portal back. Have fun.
Charname: What the hell? No way, you're coming back with us. You've got a date with Justice.
Caelar: Someone's got to close the gate from this side.
Charname: Says who?
Caelar: Says me. Now shove off.
------------------
Charname: So we saved the day, killed a devil that was WAAAY out of our league, and... well... left our enemy behind in hell. Does that count as a win?
Corwin: It doesn't matter. The crusade is over.
Charname: Right. So, party?
Everyone: Yes.
------------------
Charname: (Late at night) Crap, where's the privvy in this castle? Hey, creepy hooded guy. What's keeping you up?
Hooded Man: A puzzle of sorts. Who'd win in a fight: You, or... Skie Silvershield?!
Charname: That's even up for debate?
Hooded Man: What if she were a Slayer?
Charname: Um... don't know what that means. Those creepy guys that keep killing me in my dreams?
Hooded Man: Sure. Now fight.
(Fight ensues, you can either kill the Slayer or run Benny Hill style around the room, forcing the hooded mant to kill her.)
Soldiers: What's going on, here! Why did you kill Skie?
Charname: I... I... I...
------------------
Charname: What's the problem? We're adventurers. Death is just a waste of a few hundred gold! I'll pay it myself. She can vouch for me.
Belt: Yeah... problem is... she was killed with the SoulStealer Dagger.
Charname: That thing from Durlag's Tower?
Belt: If you say so. You wouldn't know where that dagger is, would you?
Charname: I lost it in Ulgoth's Beard.
Belt: Right. Without the dagger, she can't be resurrected. Her father isn't taking it well.
Duke Silvershield: Off with his head!
Charname: I'm not getting out of this, am I?
Belt: Not officially, anyway.
------------------
Charname: Crap. On death row in the Flaming Fist stronghold. Again. What are you in for, over there?
Clara: An inadvised cameo.
Charname: Yeah, those can get you killed. I could tell you stories. But I'm not going out like that. I've got good friends who have been with me through thick and thin. I can count on them.
Party: Yeaaaahhhh... about that...
Charname: Seriously?
Party: No hard feelings, right? We've got lives to live, present company excluded.
Charname: I've got a life I'd like to live, too, thank you very much!
Corwin: Actually, would you just admit to the crime? It'd mean a lot to me.
Charname: What. The. Hell. Why would I ever do that?
Corwin: It's for the good of the city, trust me.
Charname: Just... just go away. You all suck.
------------------
Belt: Silvershield will kill me for this, but I'm getting you out. Follow the guard when he comes.
Charname: Why?
Belt: Because they already made a sequel.
Charname: Right.
------------------
Charname: Exiled. Me. After all I've done for that gods-forsaken city! Better than getting my head lopped off, but still...
Imoen: Heya.
Charname: Where have you been?!
Imoen: Calling in some favors, finding a few friends we have left: Minsc, Dynaheir, Khalid, and Jaheira.
Charname: I... see. Well, back on the road! I've got to find that dagger and clear my name! Maybe have some choice words with my "friends" next time I see them.
Minsc: Yes, my friend! Now opens a great new chapter in our great adventure. What will we fight next?
Khalid: I-I hate to be b-bother, but does anyone else s-smell that gas?
Imoen: No, *Yawn*, but I'm getting a little sleepy... *Passes out*
Charname: *Yawn* Whelp, I'm done for. See you in the sequel. *Passes out as well*
