  ※Locate and investigate areas littered with pockmarked silver ore.

• Return to Black Brush Station and inform Warin that the mystery is solved.

• While many miners revere spriggans as bearers of good fortune, Warin has no objections to your culling the critters. The spriggans may not mean any ill, but their actions would have eventually led to disaster.

Dialogue

Warin

Ah, Forename. I daresay you are the right womanman to solve this mystery.

Someone or something has been littering the tracks with pieces of silver ore.　

Even a tiny chunk can send a wagon off its course, so I've had to devote significant manpower to locating and clearing these obstructions. We can't keep this up forever, though. I need you to find the culprits and put an end to their mischief. Search for any pieces of pockmarked silver ore on the tracks. If you're lucky, you'll catch the bastards before they escape.

So the spriggans were responsible!

The little critters gnaw on ore as a hound on a bone. The rocks on the track were their godsdamned leftovers!

Some superstitious miners believe that spriggans are harbingers of fortune, but by my reckoning the creatures are naught more than pests, like coblyns.

As far as I'm concerned, there's no better omen for Amajina & Sons than you. Ever since you began helping out at the station, our operations have been running without so much as a single hiccup.
