Where to find
- Obtainable from Balthazar's hidden room in Moonrise Towers when Gale is in the party:

- Within the hidden room, interact with the ritual circle with Gale and combine a Dead Pixie with a Broken Moonlantern.
Notes
- This item is only obtainable with Gale in your party, and Gale has exclusive dialogue about Mystra and shadow magic before and after creating the lantern.
- Allowing Gale to destroy the ritual instead grants him Mystra's Blessing, granting advantage on concentration checks. If the player destroys the circle, no benefit is granted.
- Despite being tagged as a Rare item, the ingame tooltip for the Shadow Lantern is coloured as a Story Item, like other Moonlanterns.
