Description:
Sharkhead Isle has been very good to the Cage Consortium in terms of exploitable natural resources. The bauxite deposits have provided years of good strip-mining production, which has in turn made the company a lot of money. But we realize that these deposits aren't infinite, so need to start looking to the future. In order to protect the interests of the workers that bring us the big bucks, we need to start looking for more readily available bauxite deposits.
Some of our surveyors have discovered that Potter's Field has a rather rich deposit of bauxite. Unfortunately, due to the unfortunate proximity of the graveyard, exposing the bauxite deposits via blasting might result in some bad PR for the Consortium. So we'd like to do some 'creative social engineering', setting up a scapegoat to take the blame for the explosion, while the Cage Consortium steps in and gives the workers a pittance to make it look like we care, all the while setting up operations to start mining the exposed vein. Tres bien, non?
I know someone who can help us with this little problem, an individual known as Archmage Tarixus. He has claimed a portion of Potter's FIeld for himself, and has little care for the Circle of Thorns there. If we can convince him to help us make a magical bomb to use on a part of Potter's Field and the Circle of Thorns will take the blame! Head over to Potter's Field and speak with Archmage Tarixus.
Tarixus should be able to provide you with the necessary components for this magical bomb. Archmage Tarixus: Hrm, yes. This 'Arcano-Bomb' is entirely possible, but will require special components. From my divinations, I know the Legacy Chain is doing study on some unstable magical isotopes in one of their hideouts, and will serve as the explosives for the bomb. Dr. Aeon has developed a design for an energy accelerator that works on magical materials, which will be necessary for activation of the magical isotopes. The accelerator and trigger mechanism itself will require a plethora of electronic components. Once these materials are gathered, the Arcano-Bomb can be built!
Post Mission Debrief: This is what is required, eh? Well we should get started on this right away! |
