Amlodd and Hefin shard:

You must copy her Incantations and Poses a few times to complete the ritual. It is easiest to jot down the first letter of each word of the incantation on a piece of paper as she says them to help easily remember, as you will have to repeat the poses and incantations once again if you fail to get them right. Once completed you will be given a Seren shard (wisdom), located in your inventory.

Haluned shard:

  2. Head to Morvran who can be found in the Iorwerth district, ask him to be taken to the Library. Enter the door on the West side to enter the Library and head to the Southwest corner of the cliff and click on the shard. Choose the option to include the Seren shard (dark). Proceed back to the Tower of Voices only to learn that you will need a filler crystal from Tarddiad.

    Light Within, The - RuneScape Guide (18)

Tarddiad

  1. Caution: Before proceeding you will need combat equipment, weapons and food if you wish to obtain the crystals by killing Crystal Shapeshifters.

    Proceed to the World Gate which is found Southwest of Tree Gnome Stronghold and directly south of the Eagles Peak lodestone. Rotate the dial on the gate until it has a 1 on it. Enter the portal to Tarddiad. At this point you will need to collect 50 Tarddian crystals before being able to obtain the final piece of Seren. To obtain these crystals you must mine the solid crystals, cutting the crystal branches, or fishing the floating crystals in order to receive Crystal fragments. Take 150 Crystal Fragments to Angof who is located in the Northeast island. Once you get the 50 Tarddian crystals from Angof you will then receive the final Seren piece. Before you leave to go back to the Hall, speak with angolf again, and try to "get to know him." Eventually after going through a lot of dialogue and telling him you want PEACE with the elves around, you will unlock the last Seren chant that you need to complete the ritual.
