Description
I was in charge of the harvest golems - an important job until the Scourge destroyed most of our farmlands. I've an idea that would make the golems useful again, however. I think I can rewire the harvest collectors so they'll give us a hand fighting the Scourge. I'm not an expert at this just yet, so I'm going to need my manual. The problem is, I left it at the workshop... which happens to be that burning building next to the mine. Think you could go salvage it?

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Pernicious Evidence
The sacks of grain emanate the foul stench you've come to associate with the Plague. This probably explains what happened to the footmen defending the mine. You'd best bring word back to Gerald Green.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- It's Time for Action
Well, <name>. With the last of our military in Farshire dead or worse, we can do but one thing: fight these Scourge ourselves. We have deployed militia in what remains of Farshire. Without your help, they've but little hope of winning. Go and lend them a hand. Me and the lads will watch this path.
