I hope that after you find the Cursed Crown of Ushu-Dimmu, serjo Tholer Andas will finally let go of that mine.

Ah, yes, the former Imperial penal mine that serjo Tholer Andas bought -- against my advice, I might add. Every time I look at their numbers, I swear I age at least a decade. It's barely breaking even! I hope you can turn that around.

I have no interest in keeping the mine operational anymore. Besides, as you must've learned by now, the iron veins in the mine have been all but depleted. The place is destined to be shut down. The miners can go wherever they wish to -- it's no concern of mine. I will have no further use for their labor.

Yes, yes, the mine that I sent you to. Did the miners expand the mine as instructed?

The iron mine is deep in the Armun Ashlands, west of the caravan town of Arvud. Your job is to aid the overseer and the guards at the mine to make sure it remains both secure and operational. Speak with the overseer, Gelvu Andas, inside the mine. She will tell you what needs to be done.

Yes, this is Ushu-Kur Mine. We mine iron here. This place used to be an Imperial penal mine, but House Hlaalu has been put in charge of the mine and its workers. I oversee the operations on the ground at the behest of my cousin, serjo Tholer Andas.

The miners in this place are Imperial convicts. Thieves, robbers, and murderers, all of them. It takes some manpower to keep them in check. I hope serjo Tholer Andas sends the reinforcements we've asked for soon.

Yeah, that's right. You're in the penal iron mine of Ushu-Kur. The Empire shipped us here in the middle of godsdamn nowhere and forgot that we ever existed. Now we work for the Hlaalu, I guess.

I've lived and worked in this mine for so many years that I've lost count.

The Empire used to run this place. Now the Hlaalu are in charge. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss...

That's where we are.

Apologies, but I have very little to do with the mine, despite its close proximity to Arvud. You should speak with sera Gelvu Andas in the actual mine. She supervises the place on behalf of the Hlaalu Council Company at the recommendation of her cousin, the honorable councilman Tholer Andas of Bal Foyen.

All the money from the mine goes to Bal Foyen. If my father were still alive, he wouldn't let councilman Tholer Andas walk over us like that!

All the money from the mine goes to Bal Foyen. My mother does nothing to stop it. If my father Olmas Uvayn were here, he wouldn't let councilman Tholer Andas walk over us like that!

The mine is beyond the hills to the west of here. I sometimes carry cargo and workers there.

Sadly, Arvud sees little of the mine's supposed riches. Councilman Tholer Andas of Bal Foyen has placed his cousin, Gelvu Andas, in charge of the place. The mine is to the west from here.

It's an old Imperial penal mine in the hills to the west of here. The Hlaalu are in charge of the prisoners there and have been largely left to run the mine as they see fit.
