She gives you a list of attractions in Valdrakken with Cogs-Bolts coordinates called [item=208929]. She tells you to equip the [item=206696] and [item=207730]. Your task is to find several caches hidden around the city.

Description
Remember my contact, Fangli Hoot? Seems she has another theory about the one behind these artifact thefts. I'm a bit weary after the last tip went nowhere, but we can't turn down a lead. Journalistic integrity demands we at least hear her out. You'll find her by the barber shop.
