Description

Well met, <class>. Now that reinforcements are finally arriving, we can recapture some semblance of a normal life.

One of our first goals is to restore the flow of men and goods along the road to the southwest, but it must be reclaimed from the crust bursters that've overrun the area.

If you're willing to help us deal with this menace, you would have the gratitude of the Sons. Watch carefully for the disturbed ground they leave in their wake.

Im suprized no one has said this after all this time i guess im the only nerd that noticed but the quest name is a line from a movie in the early 90s called [url=http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.filmsy.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/10/tremors1.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.filmsy.com/reviews/tremors-review/&h=436&w=300&sz=20&hl=en&start=11&um=1&tbnid=qCQVHilng8AWnM:&tbnh=126&tbnw=87&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dtremors%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26safe%3Doff%26sa%3DN]Tremors about underground worms that attack a town. Anyway at the start of the movie the two main characters are puting up a barbwire fence and one says.......

Earl:"I ask you... is this a job for intelligent men?"

Then the other (Keven Bacon) says...

Val:"Well show me one, I'll ask him."

I found a mess of these things a few yards to the southwest of Honor Hold - spawning up and around the gray Deranged Hellboars that wander around out there. You spawn them by getting near the mound of dirt they kick up as they travel around below the surface.
