The Drunken Lizard Pub

I am currently in the crypt of Adler Keldam and have opened a door that gave me the message that the security key has been removed from my inventory.

Now, I find that my character may not be up to winning the battles necessary to find the Keldam crypt.

If I leave the crypt and come back later, will the security key be available again, or is it gone forever?

You don't have to fight a single thing. 2 non spoiler tips:

1. Run and explore.
2. The portilicus door is your friend!

That may well be true, once you know where the particular coffin is, but there are a lot of critters down there more powerful than me, including a couple walking corpses that disease me if they land any damage at all, which kind of discourages careful exploration.

You can out-run them easily. They walk very slow. Maybe... lure them in the room a little.

You do not need to fight the walking corpses. They are very slow, but if you run the wrong way you will met a group of slimes that will spoil your day! But going this way gets you some nice prizes if you live! If you want to get these items bring plenty of heal potions! Spoiler! Once you come thru the door and step on the pressure plate in the center of the room the door will close and the two doors on the east and west will open to reveal the corpses. Go straight south! Look for the lever on the right hand side to open the door to the vault. The amulet is in one of the coffins. You can then leave the vault go back the way you came! There are a series of gates with a lever next to the first one. Pull the lever and keep walking to relative safety!
