So, here is my quandary. I am running my first game with a group of players, two of whom are magic users. I need some good ideas for keeping my PCs from using magic for one specific battle.

Here's some more background info. I'm running the Baldur's Gate series as a campaign for this group. Well, I need to plan for the opening dungeon of BG II (spoiler alert) where Jon Irenicus imprisons the party. Shortly thereafter, Irenicus and Imoen engage in magical combat with one another and the authorities show up and arrest the two of them.

So my question is, how do I run this so that Imoen and Irenicus get sent to Spellhold, but the two magic users of the party (cleric and sorceror) don't?

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
