Oh! One more CRITICAL piece of information. When you get charm song, don't
do it in the zone-in entry way, this is sure death. For some reason when you
charm something it paths down to the 2nd level before entering guard mode,
you are almost certain to get several nasty fish coming back up. Other areas
don't seem affected, we've had a druid/enchanter charm fish in the 2nd level
south room (nothing spawns there and it's a great pull spot) without
concern.
