Due to this, there is currently a game breaking bug. If you happen to enter the Phantom Forest (think that is what it called) Zixzax will tell you the homestead is under attack (by something BAD). If you happen to get this far, DO NOT CONTINUE and RELOAD until you visit the homestead (island in space) with all your starstones. Once it comes under attack, he won't open portals until you finish that quest story line.
This glitch killed the game for me. I'm waiting for the combat rebalancing patch before I play again. Though I am a KS backer and played in beta, I haven't finished the game due to this glitch.
It's an annoying issue but not a game breaking bug. Just do that main quest and the attack on the homestead will end...
