Dangerous Attempt

Go to the velerium mines to the northwest. Kill 40 Reshnok & collect 15 animator runes. Bring back 6 samples of velerium ore by either mining with a velerium pickaxe, or find them on the Reshnok and Sithar. Return to Khallem Mirrath when done. - Reshnok (0/40) - Animation Rune (0/15) - Velerium Ore (0/6)

"____, you are fortunate that the Direfangs are at war. Else we would not take kindly to an outsider approaching our encampments. But seeing that you are here, I shall grant you a chance to perform another task for the Direfangs." "To the northwest are the velerium mines. Go in, kill many Reshnok, and collect runes from their animators. Also, bring me six samples of velerium ore. You will need a special pickaxe if you plan to mine it yourself. I'm sure those filthy Reshnok or Sithar have some."
