Asmodian Only

Description:
Obtain the Quartz Rod and activate the Rift Orb. PlayerTalk with Herka. Defeat Shadowshift to obtain the Quartz Rod. Use it to activate the Rift Orb in the Ritual Chamber.
Summary:
Herka learned from the restored Ancient Dragonbound Document that the Rift Orb in the Ritual Chamber where you fought Isbariya the Resolute is a teleporter to Stormwing's prison.

She further discovered that an item called the Quartz Rod was needed to power the Rift Orb. She asked you to get it, as it was the only way to check on Stormwing's status.

You defeated the Quartz Rod's caretaker, Shadowshift, and took the Rod to the Ritual Chamber. However, the Rift Orb did not work. Herka was stumped.

Full quest's text:
Very interesting.... The document doesn't give a specific location for Stormwing's prison.

Instead, it describes how to get there from Beshmundir Temple.

Player: "And how do I get there?"

Apparently, there is a large orb in the Ritual Chamber where you fought Isbariya the Resolute. It is a teleporter that takes you to the Prison of Ice, where Stormwing is imprisoned.

But it seems this is no ordinary teleporter. It requires a specific energy source to function.

Player: "Not Asmodian blood, I hope."

Oh, no, nothing so prosaic. It's the Quartz Rod, found in a place called the Forgotten Storeroom.

There's a secret door to it before the Hero's Vault, wherever that is. But you've been to Beshmundir, so surely you know?

You are the only one I know with a chance of finding that Rod and activating the teleporter. Can you do it?

Player: Accept.

The Quartz Rod was apparently given to a creature called Shadowshift for safekeeping. You'll need to defeat it.

Once you have the Rod, take it to the Ritual Chamber in the Temple of Eternity and activate the Rift Orb.

I know it's dangerous, but it's the only way we can be sure whether Stormwing's seal holds or not. You need to be prepared.

Player: "I'll be ready for anything."

(Nothing happens.)

(Strange. The Quartz Rod should work.)

Player: "I need to talk to Herka."

You're right, that is strange. The Ancient Dragonbound Document says nothing about needing anything else to activate the Rift Orb.

I'm afraid I'm at a bit of a loss. I have no idea how to proceed now.

Please, give me a moment, I must think.
