Ultima VII: The Black Gate/Shrines of the Virtues


 * This sidequest requires The Keyring Mod. The shrines existed in the original game, but could not be interacted with.

For each shrine you need the accompanying rune to activate it. You can "borrow" them from the museum in ../Britain/ for this purpose. If you say use more than three cycles you lose your focus.
