[Wed Mar 31 10:26:04 2010] Clontik Beardburner says 'Eh? Who are you? You don't belong here! Well, seeing as how there are so few of us left still devoted to carrying out the will of Brell Serilis, it would only harm our cause to waste effort having you [moved] from this place.'
[Wed Mar 31 10:26:08 2010] You say, 'moved'
[Wed Mar 31 10:26:08 2010] Clontik Beardburner says 'This is the Underquarry; we mine and quarry material here, endlessly. Stone, precious metals, marble, you name it. At the moment, however, things are in a disastrous state. My stone-mining crews are being insubordinate, the Burynai are claiming the copper mine for themselves, there are Cliknar invading the silver mine, and everyone I've sent to the gold mines has yet to return. I [fear] the entire Underquarry may spin completely out of control soon, and if our production isn't corrected, there will be terrible ramifications for the entire Underfoot and all the worlds that connect to it.'
[Wed Mar 31 10:26:13 2010] You say, 'fear'
[Wed Mar 31 10:26:14 2010] Clontik Beardburner says 'So much depends on me, but ever since the influence of this Church of Self began to be a problem, more and more of my Underquarry crew have failed to follow my orders! Being assigned to the Underquarry is the highest of honors a Dwarf or even a Gnome could ever hope to achieve! Why would one risk losing the favor of Brell by abandoning one's sacred duties? Yet that is precisely what has happened. I, and these few who remain here, are all that are left who remain dedicated in service to Brell. Yet it is strange, Brell no longer appears, or has not been seen or heard from in a very long time. I may need your [help] if we are to restore the Underquarry to its proper functioning.'
[Wed Mar 31 10:26:19 2010] You say, 'help'
[Wed Mar 31 10:26:19 2010] Clontik Beardburner says 'Much to do, much to do. Your help would genuinely be appreciated. I will need help with restoring order in the [Stonequarry] as well as in the [Metal Mines]. When you have completed these tasks I have [other work] I need completed.'
[Wed Mar 31 10:26:24 2010] You say, 'other work'
[Wed Mar 31 10:26:25 2010] Clontik Beardburner says 'There are some follow-up tasks to be performed now that I've been getting feedback from the rest of the Underquarry. My plan for restoring order has [failed]. The Underquarry is overproducing quantities of stone and metal that just aren't needed, and we will have to find a [solution] somehow.'
[Wed Mar 31 10:26:31 2010] You say, 'solution'
[Wed Mar 31 10:26:31 2010] Clontik Beardburner says 'I must abandon my plan to impose my will upon the denizens of the Underquarry, though it is within my rights to do so. I will instead ask you to negotiate with the two senior foremen. Kronidar Stoutaxe supervises the metal mines, and Drenkar Darkhammer is in charge of the stone quarry. Both are very proud and tireless Dwarves, who don't believe a word of what my previous messengers have been telling them. Someone with the initiative to think creatively will need to go to them and work out an [agreement].'

[Thu Mar 25 21:33:06 2010] Kronidar Stoutaxe says 'Kronidar Stoutaxe at your service, chief foreman of metal mining in Brell's Underquarry I am. Clontik's story of a disaster in the making with our production level is amusing. We have never had a problem in the Underquarry, ever. While the reports are disturbing, as is Brell's disappearance, you'll have to bring me solid evidence that there is a problem before I can take such a dramatic step as shutting down our metal production. Only if you can find evidence that the Burynai have become hostile, or that the golems have become unreliable, would I agree to make so bold a move.'
Deliver undertone wheelsticks to kronidar
[Wed Mar 31 09:15:32 2010] Kronidar Stoutaxe says 'I am shocked that the Burynai could have become involved in this trouble. Yet their messages you have brought me indicate that not only have deep and disturbing changes taken place in our fellow creatures, but that they are acting autonomously and digging up metal ore to their hearts' content, defiant of our pre-determined production schedule. At the rate they are digging, and with Brell no longer regulating things, I wouldn't be surprised if the entire Underfoot ends up choked in unwanted ore in a matter of days. Perhaps they might even dig deep enough to open a breach into...somewhere else.'

[Wed Mar 31 09:15:40 2010] Kronidar Stoutaxe says 'It is indeed difficult to understand how the golems could have become unreliable. If the other information you have been asked to present is in order, then we must shut down the metal mines at once. It will take time, but I think I can get at least the dwarves and gnomes to stop mining metal. But there is something I hadn't thought of: where will they put their pickaxes when they stop work? We'll have to build pickaxe racks, I suppose. Find me some pieces of wood, and I'll try and locate a carpenter somewhere.'

This solo task begins with Clontik Beardburner who is located in the zone-in area of the Underquarry (location -15, 150, -193).
There are pre-requisites for requesting this task: "Chaos in the Stonequarry" + "Unrest in the Metal Mines", followed by "An Alternative Explanation".
