3. He will give you a ring that is an Astral Guide.
4. Travel to Oshu’hhrsk Manor. The Asharshpar'i shard is located here as well.
   • If you can get a MM who knows the ways to moongate/rift you there.
   • Alternatively, have a S’kra dance in front of the door for it to open.
5. RAISE RING and you’ll be transported into the ways.
6. Wait for the ring to tell you which direction to go then move.
7. You are looking for a white door, when you find it GO DOOR
8. You’ll be in a room with a pool, a dial and a lever. You’ll need to manipulate these to find a soft grey sphere. Push or pull the lever to widen or narrow the focus. Turn the dial to control what object it’s focused on. After adjusting the lever or the dial, you must look pool in order to see what you're looking at. Once you find the sphere, tap the dial until you’re clearly focused with crystal clarity. (My strategy in finding the grey sphere was 1) Look pool, 2) pull lever, 3) look pool, 4) turn dial left, 5) look pool. Repeat steps 4 and 5. If you can't turn the dial any more, pull the lever and repeat. If you think you can no longer pull the lever, then push the lever and repeat. You will have to do this a lot. When you get the soft grey sphere looks fuzzy, try tapping the dial instead of turning it.
9. STUDY POOL until you get the messaging that you’ve learned the secret of astral travel.
10. GO DOOR
11. Go whichever direction you can and you’ll be attacked, there’s nothing you can do about this and you won’t be hurt.
12. RAISE RING again and follow the directions back to Asharshpar’i.
