So the kobolds are dead, but the cave they were inhabiting contains a buried Daedric ruin? This is quite worrying, %PCName. If the ruin is indeed the cause of their aggression, I'm afraid the problem is far outside my expertise. It's unfortunate, but I think we'll have to leave this problem to my father. At least take this gold as payment for killing the kobolds. I appreciate your efforts.

So the kobolds are dead, but the cave they were inhabiting contains a buried Daedric ruin? This is quite worrying, %PCName. If the ruin is indeed the cause of their aggression, I'm afraid the problem is far outside my expertise. Honestly, I'm a bit worried, but... there is possibly one person in Bodrum who could aid us. That is, if we're willing to accept the help of a heretic.

My father sent another guard to protect the miners when the attacks started, but the situation there hasn't changed in weeks. Galvyn Raloran will tell you more.

Well, at least you didn't accept the job and run off like the others. Come see me again if you change your mind.

Really, you will? You're sure? That's wonderful! Please, go to Neleni-Shalsar egg mine and speak with the foreman, Galvyn Raloran, about the kobolds. They've been harried by them for weeks now. He'll be able to give you directions to Ogroth. And please, do NOT tell my father about this! He has enough to worry about. I'll prepare a suitable reward for you should you succeed.

I'm pleased that the kobolds have been dealt with, but it's quite troubling if this buried Daedric ruin is the cause of their aggression. I'm afraid this is far outside my expertise, %PCName. And I don't know anyone nearby who could help us. Unfortunately, I think I will have to leave the matter to my father from here. But please, take this gold for killing the kobolds. That should ease the miners' worries for a while.

Kobolds nesting in a cave called Ogroth have been unusually aggressive towards the Neleni-Shalsar egg mine. No one has died yet, but I would like to see the miners put at ease. Would you be interested in the job?

My daughter took a risk, and it paid off. Sometimes it does not. True wisdom is knowing when the risk is worth taking. Perhaps she is ready to learn the difference from me directly. Thank you for supporting her, outlander.

So the problem is more complicated than it initially seemed. Well, such is often the case when you bear the burden of leadership. If my daughter wants more responsibilities, she has to learn that, at times, an unorthodox solution might be required. As long as it does not shame you or your House. If she can trust in herself, I am sure she can find such a solution.

Yes, I'm well aware that Rarvela has been sending mercenaries to help out at the egg mine. Do not think I am neglecting them, outlander. The guards have kept the beasts at bay, and as I see it the situation does not call for further intervention. I'm somewhat disappointed that my daughter thought it necessary to go behind my back, but if she wants to take more responsibility in Bodrum and aid her house, I am not one to stop her. Serve her with honor.

Thank you for helping my daughter, outlander.

My daughter has a good head on her shoulders, but she is still somewhat naive. I doubt she realizes how chatty you adventuring types are; I imagine the whole town has heard about her struggles by now. And, of course, she can't hide anything from her mother.

I suppose my sister has won her first battle, in a way. And she feels newly emboldened to serve her house. I owe you my thanks for that, %PCName.

My sister is still young, but I worry my father is coddling her too much. The situation at the mine is under control, and subverting his will in this manner makes him look weak. But if my lord tolerates it, I will not object.

Certainly an unusual solution, %PCName, but at least we don't have to worry about things nesting in the cave and going berserk. Thank you for helping us.

I hope you and lady Rarvela can come up with a solution.

I'm relieved to hear the kobolds are dead, but you say the cave is brushing up against some buried Daedric shrine? That is very troubling, %PCName. If indeed that is the cause of their aggression, it's only a matter of time until some new creatures make the cave their den and come under its influence. This problem is far beyond a simple miner. You should report this to lady Rarvela. But here -- on behalf of us at the mine, take a drink for the road.

Please be careful, outlander. You are not the first to take up her ladyship's mission. I know she means well, but she needs a more discerning eye towards who to hire. At least you look capable enough. Hopefully you can break this terrible stalemate we find ourselves in.

Ah, so her ladyship has sent more help? Allow me to fill you in. A while ago, kobolds from the cave known as Ogroth assaulted the guard outside. A few even slipped in to attack us during the chaos. Now, kobolds may be vicious and opportunistic beasts, but they've continued to futilely throw themselves at us even after our Lord strengthened the guard. While you clear them out of Ogroth, please keep an eye out for anything that might explain their behavior. Her ladyship will want to know.

Thank you for getting rid of the kobolds, outlander. We feel much safer now.

Thankfully no one has gotten seriously hurt, but the kobolds have made our job much more stressful lately. The situation has the kwama agitated as well.
