### 134

The portal is near enough for you to be able to attempt to close it. Unfortunately, when you cast the shining power of the Moonstone on to the burning gate you will reveal yourself to the evil host that lurks in the valley below.

If you wish to remount your Simar steed before making the attempt, turn to 139.

If you prefer to make the attempt from your hiding place at the edge of the valley behind the ridge, turn to 153.
