Due to the requirements needed to reach the shrine, and the powerful monsters in and around the Maw, the Silver Orb is designed to be the final orb obtained in a normal playthrough. Getting the Silver Orb is actually the longest subquest in Dragon Quest III aside from collecting all six orbs to get Ramia.

The Silver Orb was taken by a bird monster to the Eerie Eyrie. Hints about this are given by a handful of NPCs in different areas. At the top of the Eerie Eyrie, the Hero and party must fight three Elysium birds. When the birds are defeated, a treasure chest appears; the Orb can be found inside.

During Act 2, the Silver Orb is in the possession of the Spectral Sentinel Jasper, who uses it to amplify his power during the boss battle against him. When Jasper falls, the Hero regains the orb. This makes the Silver Orb the last orb regained in Act 2, as Jasper is the last Spectral Sentinel to be defeated.
