It’lal Magic Portals:
There are five fixed archways in the gateway plaza of It’lal. Each gateway has a matched set of magic items which form the other end of the gateway. All are currently not active. The two parts of the gateway items consist of a Key stone (or cap stone) and a key (the first one found was in the shape of an ornamental dagger and was called the dagger-key). To activate the gateway requires an intricate magic circle drawn on wall which defines the gateway then placing the keystone at the top position and inserting the dagger-key. A magical portal will form between the new magic circle and the matching archway in gateway Plaza of It’lal. If the dagger-key or keystone is removed from the magic circle pattern the magic portal will close.
