Shadow Lantern is a unique type of Moonlantern which produces shadows instead of light.
Encased in a cocoon of shadow within the lantern, the mangled pixie lies like some deformed pupa, its mouth slack, and those same shadows crawling over its graying tongue.

Where to find
- Obtainable from Balthazar's hidden room in Moonrise Towers when Gale is in the party:
- To access Balthazar's hidden room, interact with the top right Protruding Book and insert one of the human hearts from the room into the small Ancient Altar.
- Within the hidden room, interact with the ritual circle with Gale and combine a Dead Pixie with a Broken Moonlantern.
Notes
- This item is only obtainable with Gale in your party, and Gale has exclusive dialogue about Mystra and shadow magic before and after creating the lantern.
- Despite being tagged as a Rare item, the ingame tooltip for the Shadow Lantern is coloured as a Story Item, like other Moonlanterns.
- As the flavour text suggests, unlike other Moonlanterns, the Shadow Lantern does not emit a bright sphere of light.
