Description
So the people of Taelloch use chalk on slate to leave messages to each other. So many clues! But what does it all mean.... I'm seeing a pattern, and I think it points to the mines. If the workers haven't already been lost, I'd expect them to be in the mines. And I know the foreman is the key. She has to be.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Controlled Demolition
I know we've fought skardyn before, champion, but this... this is worse. I knew that skardyn were turning earthen into more skardyn, but I didn't expect... the crystals... the spikes... the roiling blue energy... that smell! Anyway, not what I expected at all.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Buried in Stone
We need to go into the cave, the one mentioned near the last slate. It's not signed, but I think that's the foreman's handwriting... and we've looked everywhere else. We have to investigate.
