Portal to Alfheim

The Portal to Alfheim is a player-created multiblock structure added by Botania. The Portal allows the player to exchange certain blocks and items for more valuable ones. Unlike most portals the Portal to Alfheim cannot be travelled through, and if the player were to stand in it, it would not teleport them anywhere.

The portal requires a very large amount of Mana to open at first, and the portal will not be created until it has enough Mana. It is advised in the Lexica Botania that it takes less Mana to keep a portal active than to switch it on and off every time the player wants to use it.

If the portal is not being fed enough Mana, or a part of the structure is broken, the Portal will close, it can be reopened although it would cost a large amount of Mana to do so.

Any block that is not listed for exchange will disappear in the Portal never to be seen again and the player will not receive any item in exchange from this.
