Description
I need a progress report sent to Thelsamar - a progress report, and a restatement of my request for more blastpowder! Here's the report. Take it to Jern Hornhelm. He's our local contact in Thelsamar.
It's not a difficult task, but it must be done.
In progress
Oh, a progress report from the site? Very good!
Completion
Bah! Ironband's having trouble with the Troggs. I wonder if he wants that blastpowder to aid his digging, or to aid his efforts against the Trogg beasts...
Well, either way it's powder well spent!
But what's strange is, I sent him plenty of blastpowder weeks ago. I wonder where it went...
