The Shard

This page contains content from Underrail: Expedition expansion.

The Shard Misc.

The shard is about seven centimeters long and looks more like two different items being held together by some unnatural force. One item being made from some strange rock while the other being some manner of crystal which gives out prismatic glow but is not able to illuminate any other object. The more of the one side of the shard you see, the more the whole shard seems to assume the non-visual properties of that side - such as weight, temperature, and surface texture.

Use: Examine the shard.

Weight: 0.05

Cannot be sold.

The Shard is a plot item in Underrail: Expedition.

Location

The shard is found in the Sørmirbæren Graveyard, past the Boneyard at coordinates G11/G12, in a randomized body part of a random corpse. In order to properly find it the player must know both the rune that represents Sjörsr and the body part where The Shard is stuck in.

There are several ways to learn about its location:

• Ferryman can tell you about which body part it's located in if you ask him about the monolith. Normally he won't talk about it much, but once you understand his philosophy well enough for Philosophy II feat (8 effective Intelligence required), he'll open up.
  • Alternatively, if you're on friendly terms with Mutie Refuge, Eustace can reveal that Ferryman possessed the Shard, and you can then ask Ferryman about it.
• Talking to Yngwar about Sjörsr (provided that you are in friendly terms), he will tell you about both the rune and the body part it's in.
• Inspecting the rune of Sjörsr hammer in B11, near a statue in the northeastern part of the zone.

Use

Upon using the shard the player can inspect either side of it, or both sides at once, producing different paranormal sensations for either choice.

Examining the shard while under The Juice's influence (Second Sight) allows one to retrieve Ethereal Torch from it. Alternatively, Azif may also retrieve the torch for the player.
