Initial Dialogue:

  * **Salmor explains:** "The Lost Portal has been sealed for centuries. To activate it, you need to find its three magical Shards. They are scattered in dangerous places and guarded by formidable guardians."

  * Player asks: “Where can I find these Shards?”

  • Salmor replies: “Ah, listen carefully! I will guide you:
    

      - **The first Shard, the Shard of the Portal (Shadow),** is located to the east of the island, in the Forest of No Return on Raven's Dust. It is protected by shadow wolves.  
      - **The second Shard, the Shard of the Portal (Bones),** is hidden in the Minotaur Labyrinth. You will need to defeat skeletons to retrieve it.  
      - **The final Shard, the Shard of the Portal (Stone),** is guarded by a powerful stone elemental in the basement of Mordenthal in Stoneheim."
