This walk-through will take you from speaking to the emissary, finding the locations of the secret doors, solving the mystery of the doors and entering Durin's Tower.

Goal: Unlock the door

Look for small piles with flecks of yellow in the zone around the Mithril Forge, mine those with your pickaxe to acquire pumice
If you’re not getting enough pumice dropped from each pile, check your settings to increase your world drop values. In my settings, I get 1-2 pumice per pile
Acquire at least 9 pumice

Travel to your base, or wherever you may have access to a Khuzdul Forge

Craft at least 3 mirrored silver using a Khuzdul Forge (recipe: 1 silver ingot + 3 pumice per mirrored silver)
Ensure you have the mats for a mirror in your backpack: 3 mirrored silver, 20 steel ingots, 2 sapphire

Return to the Tomb of Kings

Build a Beam-mirror (in your build menu under Essentials & Crafts, under Essentials), placed in the sunlight as adjacent to the secret door as you can
Select to position the mirror (E on keyboard), use your mouse to move left/right and up/down until you can see the outline of the door. Leave the mirror there and walk to the door, press E to start singing
The doors will open, feel free to grab any loot you find
Deconstruct the mirror, take the mats with you

The doors will open and it will be empty inside. This is likely a bug that may get patched in the future
