Details

Start point The Keldagrim mines east of Rellekka, north of the Mountain Camp. The Keldagrim mines east of Rellekka, north of the Mountain Camp.
Official difficulty Experienced
Description Hidden away from the fearsome trolls and the roaming Fremennik, the dwarves delve deep beneath the mountains in search for the ore they need to support their home of Keldagrim. One dwarf in particular, however, has for years been trying to crack open a rock that seems to be impervious to any material that he's tried on it. Convinced that solving the riddle of the rock will lead him to unimaginable wealth, he has spent the later part of his life on just this lump of stone. Help him out, but take care you don't end up in a tight spot!
