This dont even seem so hard ...

So far the only group that could want to use them, that i can think of, are Tieflings ... (can anyone find another?)
All Larian need to do is add some conversation option with Zevlor sugesting portal, where Zevlor answer something like:
"We have ox drawn carriage here, animals dont handle magic well ... they could get scared and cause a lot of problems, we don't want to change one danger for another."

And voila! Portals are here, everyone knows about them, yet they are useless for them.

If only the world was such a simple place.

A teleportation system would have immeasurable value in the realms for both commerce and warfare. The wilderness would be overrun with interested nations and parties trying to chip the portals off the rock and use them for their own benefit. The Zhents are already there, how did they overlook this prospect of the century? Red Wizards would want them, Harpers would try to make sure any wrong faction doesn't get them.. Drow and Duergar would use them to make surface raids for slaves. Goblins would use them for hit and runs between the fort and the grove.
