Before the {{Hero 11}} and [[Erik]] return to [[Cobblestone]], they visit Downtown [[Heliodor]] to take the Orb back from where it had been stashed. When the Orb is absent from the stash, they must track down Erik's former partner in crime, [[Derk]], who tells them that it has been taken to the [[Kingsbarrow]]. The Orb is regained there. Note that this is technically one of [[Erik]]'s possessions at this point, and does not appear in the Important Items inventory. Later on, when the Hero and his party discover that it is one of the Six Orbs needed to reach [[Yggdrasil]], Erik gives the Red Orb to the {{Hero 11}}. | ||
