Tethyamar Mining Outpost

Before Third Time's a Charm is bestowed:

• Eluf the Steadfast: Hello there, stranger. No time for pleasantries, I'm afraid. But maybe you can help me with a problem.
• Eluf the Steadfast: First, a group of our miners were taken captive nearby. Then we sent a second party to retrieve the first. The second group was also captured!
• Eluf the Steadfast: We didn't know what was going on until one of the miners made it back to us just a few hours ago. She told us that the Drow of Sschindylryn are the ones behind it.
• Eluf the Steadfast: I can't risk sending more Dwarves down into that mine until we get our workers back. And that's where you come in, <class>. Will you help us?
  • You: How can I help?
    • Eluf the Steadfast: The escaped Dwarf - her name's Rielle - was able to show me the location of the camp she escaped from on my map of the area. She'll be waiting for you near this fortification to tell you what she knows.
    • Eluf the Steadfast: Go to the Drow Camp, find the captured Dwarves, and bring them home!
    • Eluf the Steadfast: I just can't bear to think of what they have been through.
      • You: Don't worry, Foreman. I'll lead the Dwarves to safety. (Third Time's a Charm bestowed)
  • You: Why would the Drow do this?
    • Eluf the Steadfast: Tethyamar is a fair way from Sschindylryn, so it's not just some border scrap. The only explanation I can think of is that the Drow want to steal the Jewels of Ardor from right beneath our noses!
      • You: What can I do? (see "How can I help?" above)

After Third Time's a Charm is bestowed but before completion:

• Eluf the Steadfast: Please hurry! I can't bear to think of our miners in the hands of the Drow.

After Third Time's a Charm is completed:

• Eluf the Steadfast: Thank the gods. You're alive and well! Tell me, what happened down there?
  • You: Just as you said. The Drow were after the Jewels of Ardor. The Dwarves were being help as slaves, but they're safe now.
    • Eluf the Steadfast: What a relief to hear our miners have returned!
    • Eluf the Steadfast: Thanks to you, we can get our operations back on schedule. And right away!
      • You: Surely the miners deserve to rest for a while after this ordeal?
        • Eluf the Steadfast: No time for that! Getting back on schedule means more hours, more work, and more Jewels of Ardor! Every miner needs to give us their all, with no exceptions.
        • Eluf the Steadfast: But thank you, stranger. I owe you for this. Remember, we can always use more help mining for Jewels!
          • You: Thank you for the offer, Foreman, but I'll just take my reward and be on my way. (open Quest Reward UI)

After the reward for Third Time's a Charm has been received:

• Eluf the Steadfast: The Drow have captured more of our workers. Can you spare your services, <character name>?
  • You: Repeat the quest "Third Time's the[sic] Charm."
