This door will only open after you've defeated the Lindworm on the top level of

6 - Shrine of Balance
You'll only be able to enter this shrine after opening the way into
Castle Nex (see the
Forgotten River location entry for details). At that point, as long as you leave the elemental essences where they belong, if you cast the Balance spell in the center of the Castle Nex courtyard, then you'll be sent here. This shrine is much like the four elemental shrines, except if you place four
Power Gems on the table here, then you'll receive an
Essence of Balance, which you'll be able to use in the
Trickster's Lair beneath the River Tunnels (Exit G).
S1 - Stone Head
"This is the shrine of balance. Balance is the invisible force that binds everything together. Without it the universe could not exist."
S2 - Stone Head
"You are well on the way to ascension. With it comes a great price. You still have the choice to turn back."
S3 - Stone Head
"Bring forth four power gems to fuse them into the essence of the element. Not all of the gems lie under skies; some of them are buried deep underground."
