Silver Orb
The Silver Orb is a key item in Dragon Quest III. It is one of the Six Orbs required to hatch Ramia. It is held by a man at the Shrine of Gondo.
Gondo Cave
In order to receive the orb from the man at the Necrogond Shrine, the heroes must first throw the Mountaincleaver into the volcano. This opens the path to the Maw of the Necrogond. After passing through the cave, the heroes can arrive at the shrine.
Detail
Due to setup required to reach the shrine, and the powerful monsters in and around the Gondo Cave, the silver orb is designed to be the final orb received of the six orbs. Getting the silver orb is actually the longest subquest in Dragon Quest III aside from collecting all six orbs to get Ramia.
