[edit] The Mysterious Mine

1. Upon entering, take the left path. It is guarded by the same groups of roekillik in the previous quest.
2. Once you reach the mine elevator room, take the north tunnel. Half way in is a group of two roekillik miners^ and a foreman^^. At the end of the tunnel is a room, guarded by an epicx2 greater rumbler. Behind and to the left of it is a small, antique cage. Grabbing it will summon a roekillik sandbagger, who snatches it away from you.
