Walkthrough for yesterdays Foreshadow, explained by Jovi:

Having completed the Patrol puzzle, I put down my pencil and take the solution with me to the metal door ahead. A harsh tone blares, and it unseals, revealing the next room.

Room Two: Warp
The sound of my speaker-friend cuts back in, now from a different location than before. "In this room you will use the given portals to infiltrate the fortress. You will avoid all contact with people or security cameras. Retrieve a vials worth of venom from the floor of the facility, left along the path you've traced in the previous test." They cut out again without giving me a chance to ask questions. Venom? There was a serpent of sorts back there, I remember, but what do they want with that? I'm getting suspicious, but I don't have many other options to choose from...

Rules: Place a number from the range given into each portal such that every number appears twice. From each clue outside the grid a path is imagined, entering in the given direction and traveling in a straight line, teleporting to a portal’s numeric counterpart if touched, and making a 90 degree turn off of any mirrors it may encounter. A clue outside the grid indicates the sum of the values the path enters (not counting again when exiting) and if a value is used multiple times by a path, its value is counted each time

Note: It isn't required to draw paths here, but I've provided line mode if it helps you keep track of everything! Another clarification, you cannot turn in a portal, this is implied by the rules but perhaps not obvious 🙂
