===Threshold of Loss=== | ===Threshold of Loss=== | ||
Behind the main chamber, a large locked door called the '''Threshold of Loss''' blocks entry to the rest of the temple. It can either be lockpicked (DC 30), opened with a {{SmRarityItem|Silver Key}}, or opened by placing 1000 gold worth of items on the scale in front of the statue of Shar (this will consume the items!). If Shadowheart is a Dark Justiciar, the door opens on its own.
