"Tiny pale mushrooms sprout densely all over the corpse. Larger, bulbous growth protrudes from the earthen's mouth and ears."
That's some nightmare fuel.

Description
Several suns ago, my friend Modhina ventured into the quarry cave. She wanted to find rare ore for Hreka, to help her craftsmanship. Modhina was excited, I remember. A rare feeling for earthen. She hasn't returned. The fungarians prevent us from searching the area. It would mean a great deal to us if you could look for her. I didn't know it was possible to spend so much of the day thinking about what if's.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Monsters in the Dark
The local quarry was an active source of clay and ore for us until the fungarians took over some time ago. We were worried about the fungarians encroaching upon the village, but there's something more. Multiple sightings of a creature much larger than our native wildlife have been reported at night.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Hope, An Anomaly
<Hreka looks through the things you retrieved, one by one.> So you risked your life to find our friend. Modhina is gone, then. Her notes are about the rare ore from the cave. Melted down, it becomes a beautiful glaze for pottery. What can I do? I'm no fighter. I can't avenge her.
