As you get close to the portal... nothing happens.

(Touch it if that changes anything, otherwise, move on.)
M: "Well... My theory was wrong...
I would take that torch staff if you're still offering it, please. I assume I won't get past the dark energy myself, but I might find a way to remove it anyway...
I will go and investigate it."

"Very well." The woman disappears for a few moment, then returns with a silvery staff. She hands it to you. "Good luck, young man. Remember there's no shame in running if things look dangerous."
You head towards the dark tunnel. "Good hunting!" Cinnabre calls after you.
Lagos follows after you without saying anything.
Shortly after entering the tunnel, you find a letter lying on the ground. It's addressed to "Malefio, you filthy meatsack."

M: "Nyl?"
Malefio pokes it with the staff...
If there's no reaction, he'll open and read it.

You poke the letter. No reaction. No signs of invisi-Nyl following you through the portal, either. So you open it.
BOOM! Heh heh. I wish. Anyway, here's your hints. The key to silencing storms is hidden under the bridge. Her apprentice is running with rats. Not that that's useful to you, meatsack.

M: "A riddle heh? Well... I saw no bridge yet... Is the storm the dark energy? I lack information right now. Let's find that dark portal."

You continue down the tunnel, making some notes of the weird letter. More people really shoulda done that.
You gradually begin to feel the air growing heavier. Up ahead you can see something purplish throbbing in the darkness.
More immediately, you see a small, yellow-ish dragon crawling around the tunnel. It keeps trying to fly, but it can't maneuver in the low tunnel. It's more making a series of short jumps, firing scales from its tail. Its opponent is a giant mole. Like the shopkeeper, the mole is blurry and gives you a mild discomfort just to look at. You can feel your orb throbbing.
The mole seems to be winning, popping out and slashing the dragon, then retreating underground to avoid a counterattack.
