Regin (NPC)'Ha! Now we can finally find the father-lode!
'Hm. Wait a moment. These directions are not exactly what I was expecting:
Find the father in the raw rock
The lode lies amongst high hills
Fell falcons soar through skies and
Savage lynx guard the gorges
Shining the silver, glittering the gold
A cliff's crags keep the secret
'They had a poetic turn back in the old days. But I wish they were more precise....
'Well, I think we at least have some idea how to proceed. The map and those directions together speak clearly to me of a cliff north-west of Othrikar. All you have to do is find a suitable rock formation that is rich with ore. If you do, take a sample, and we'll see if it's the true father-lode.'

Objective 1:
The father-lode is somewhere to the north-west of Othrikar.
Find the father in the raw rock
The lode lies amongst high hills
Fell falcons soar through skies and
Savage lynx guard the gorges
Shining the silver, glittering the gold
A cliff's crags keep the secret
The old records combined with the mining map suggested to Regin the location of the father-lode, but the directions were far from precise. Regin has asked you to find a suitable rock formation and take an ore sample.
