Verified follow-up and entry
This conversation opens the portal topic with the Bishop only once the earlier Foundry battle has also been won. The two milestones can be completed in either order. When his normal dialogue is available, choose the option shown below; this topic has no additional item payment.
The topic leads into the linked zombie-power and portal-piece tasks. Their own requirements and the earlier access route still apply.

Related steps and operations
Keep the current objective’s requirements, earlier access conditions and other control locks. These are bounded configuration/script findings, not a saved-game test or certification of the full activation chain.
Insert the portal fragments
Completing this conversation starts the progress checks for the six fragment options below. Interact with the portal and select the option matching the fragment in your backpack. Each option consumes one matching fragment and places it in the portal.
The closed portal is replaced during this task’s reward scene: The Hungry Cosmos · Speak with Gunter in the Astrologer's Tower about the portal fragments
Each of these first five fragment options counts once toward the same recorded total. Follow each fragment’s own acquisition conditions.
- Portal fragment Gluttony × 1 — Insert Gluttony fragment
- Portal fragment Sloth × 1 — Insert Sloth fragment
- Portal fragment Lust × 1 — Insert Lust fragment
- Portal fragment Envy × 1 — Insert Envy fragment
- Portal fragment Pride × 1 — Insert Pride fragment
When the recorded total reaches five, the following search for the next fragment starts: Even More Portal Parts · Find the sixth portal fragment. It is somewhere in the debris in the Inquisition Base.
- Portal fragment Wrath × 1 — Insert Wrath fragment
Inserting the Wrath fragment starts the following palace task: Palace Politics · Speak with Davy the Dagger at the Dockside Club.
Menu visibility alone does not establish that the hidden progress checks are active. Earlier story conditions, item availability and each option’s completion state still apply. The first five options share a counter but retain their individual quest results and follow-ups.
