The dwarves of the Silvertine Lodes mining expedition have a universal hunger for the discovery of mithril, or true-silver in the common tongue.
'The mine-shaft may be fairly empty of good prospects, but perhaps the very tunnel around us may provide a better yield. Will you search the surrounding area once more, and again I will look at your harvest for signs of mithril.
'My heart yearns to see just the slenderest vein! The hope such a discovery would kindle in my folk is beyond description, ${PLAYER}.'
Ore-deposits can be found in the tunnel near Sori, and in the south-heading passage of the Silvertine Lodes.
You should search nearby for deposits of ore, and bring samples back to Sori for inspection.
Sori is in the southern tunnel of the Silvertine Lodes, perched on a wooden platform.
You should bring the ore you gathered to Sori so that he may inspect it for mithril.
