The Portal Network refers to the multitude of portals in towns and dungeons linking together various locations in Dereth.
Portal Hubs
Portal hubs are locations that contain numerous outbound portals.
Dungeons
Town Network - This is the primary way to get from town to town. It has a portal to nearly every town inside, and almost every town (even those not included in the network) has a portal to here. Notable Towns that DO NOT have a portal in the Town Network include Ayan Baqur, Bandit Castle, Candeth Keep, Crater Lake Village, and Wai Jhou.

Web Maze - Located east of Baishi at 49.4S, 65.4E . It contains portals to:
Abandoned Mine (retired) - Also known as Subway, Sub, or Hub. It was previously a large portal hub. During the Shifting Gears event nearly every portal was removed. It now only has a portal to the Underground City and to the surface. Previously, it had contained portals to Arwic, Cragstone, Glenden Wood, Hebian-To, Holtburg, Mayoi, Qalaba'r, Rithwic, Samsur, Shoushi, Yaraq, and Zaikhal.
Jungle Shadows (retired) - Also known as Jungle Sub or New Sub. It was previously a large portal hub. During the Shifting Gears event nearly every portal was removed. It now only has a portal to the North Direlands and to the South Direlands. Previously, it had contained portals to Baishi, Eastham, Glenden Wood, Hebian-To, Neydisa Castle, North Direlands, Plateau Village, South Direlands, Tufa, and Zaikhal.
Umbral Halls (retired) - It was previously a large portal hub. During the Shifting Gears event nearly every portal was removed. It now only has a portal to MacNiall's Freehold. Previously, it had contained portals to Al-Arqas, Al-Jalima, Arwic, Eastham, Glenden Wood, Kara, Khayyaban, Kryst, Lin, Lytelthorpe, Nanto, Plateau Villag, Rithwic, Samsur, Sawato, Stonehold ,Tou-Tou, Uziz, and Xarabydun.
Adventurer's Haven (retired) - It was previously a small portal hub, containing portals to Lytelthorpe, Samsur, and Yanshi. During the Shifting Gears event these portals were removed, however, a Town Network portal was added in.
Outdoors
Abandoned Arena/Colosseum - Besides the two dungeons, you can also find portals to:
Ancient Town - Besides being the location of the Dungeon of Tatters, you can also find portals to:
Starter Towns (retired) - in a previous update, Holtburg, Shoushi, and Yaraq were given portals to numerous other towns. When Sanamar was introduced, it also contained many portals. During the Shifting Gears event these portals were all removed, and each town was given a portal to the Town Network instead.
Hidden Valley (retired) - An isolated valley with a portal to the Desert Ridge Border. It previously had portals to Holtburg and Mayoi as well.
Wilderness Fort (retired) - Previously had portals to Hebian-To and Zaikhal. Both have been removed.
Statue Dungeons
Statue dungeons are located under the statue pedistals in most towns. Along with the statue creatures they contain, they also each have a portal to another town, which can make them a handy way to get around. The Statue dungeons are:
- Destination: Nanto
- Found in: Holtburg, Shoushi, Yaraq, Rithwic, Yanshi, Samsur, Lytelthorpe, Al-Arqas, and of course Nanto
- Destination: Cragstone
- Found in: Hebian-To, Zaikhal, Glenden Wood, Tou-Tou, Khayyaban, Lin, Al-Jalima, Eastham, and Cragstone

- Destination: Fort Tethana
- Found in: Kara, Wei Jhou, Ayan Baqur, and Fort Tethana
Portal Loops
During the Shifting Gears event, the Town Network was introduced and nearly every existing portal to a town was destroyed.
Primary Loop
This loop connects the 4 starter towns along with several other towns intended for low level adventure.
Holtburg -> Rithwic -> Shoushi <-> Yanshi -> Yaraq <-> Samsur -> back to Holtburg
There are also shortcuts from Holtburg -> Shoushi -> Yaraq -> Holtburg
Additionally, Holtburg, Shoushi, and Yaraq all have portals to Sanamar, which has portals back to all 3.
Also considered part of the loop are Rithwic -> Lytelthorpe, Shoushi -> Nanto, and Yaraq -> Al-Arqas.
Secondary Loop
This loop connects the 3 original capital cities along with Qalaba'r.
The portals in this loop are two-way, so the loop can be traveled in either direction.
Cragstone <-> Hebian-To <-> Qalaba'r <-> Zaikhal <-> Cragstone
Tertiary Loop
Another useful portal loop connecting another set of towns. Note that only some of the portals are two-way.
Arwic <-> Tou-Tou <-> Lin <-> Khayyaban <-> Al-Jalima -> Tou-Tou
