Chalky salt is an essential export which the Lossoth in the Western Tundra trade to the snow sled builders in the south. The salt is used to cure rawhide strips, which are used as thread.
'Now that the outpost is secure, we can begin gathering a most valuable resource: salt. Our post is assigned the task of watching the springs and collecting chalky salt which can be sold at a handsome price to workers in the southern forests. They use it somehow when they build our sleds.
'We must stay and keep watch. If you can go and collect the salt from the vents, we will make sure to pay you well...'
Far to the west in Länsi-mâ there are hot springs around which salt encrusted rocks can be found. Gather salt from these rocks to bring back to Väinö in Norsu-leiri.
Return to Väinö in Norsu-leiri with the salt you have collected.
