Sure enough, once Halsin enters the portal, waves of enemies will begin to spawn, who will prioritise targeting the portal to the Shadowfell above all else. The portal must be kept intact for four turns, at which point Halsin will return. The enemies that spawn include [[Wraith]]s, [[Shadow]]s, Shadow Mastiffs, [[Shadow Creeper]]s, and Shadow-Cursed Harpers, Flaming Fists, Zealots, and Githyanki Warriors. If the portal is destroyed, then Halsin will be lost to the Shadowfell forever, and the quest fails.

If Halsin succeeds, he exits the portal with Thaniel in his arms, unconscious. He explains that something is wrong and that it seems a part of Thaniel is missing, and asks the party to meet him back at camp to discuss what to do next.

[[Oliver]] is the missing half of Thaniel's spirit. He's located in the [[House in Deep Shadows]] (which will be marked on the map as ''House of Flowers''), found to the east of Last Light Inn. If the player hasn't already played hide-and-seek with him, he might ask them to do so - but regardless of whether or not his game is played, Oliver will grow angry when reminded of who Thaniel is, and eventually runs away into a shadow portal.
[[Oliver]] is the missing half of Thaniel's spirit. He's located in the [[House in Deep Shadows]] (which will be marked on the map as ''House of Flowers''), found to the east of Last Light Inn.

Use the portal to follow Oliver to the middle of [[Reithwin Town]]. He shields himself under a Nightdome that reflects any damage it is dealt back to the attacker, and summons several enemies to protect him - two [[Wraith]]s called "Mummy" and "Daddy", as well as a shadowy owlbear called "Oliver's Favourite Toy". He will also summon five Shadow Friends at a time. Killing each of Oliver's summoned allies will deal damage to the Nightdome without reflecting the damage back.

He shields himself under a Nightdome that reflects any damage it is dealt back to the attacker, and summons several enemies to protect him - two [[Wraith]]s called "[[Mummy]]" and "[[Daddy]]", as well as a shadowy owlbear called "[[Shadow Plush]]". He will also summon five Shadow Friends at a time. Killing each of Oliver's summoned allies will deal damage to the Nightdome without reflecting the damage back.


Once the dome is destroyed, Oliver complains about being disturbed and says he doesn't want to go back to Thaniel, who he perceives as having abandoned him. The player can choose to be kind when convincing Olivier to rejoin Thaniel and be whole again, or be aggressive; they can also let Halsin handle it.
