Crumpled Note

Guess what? That guy Reiner came by again the other day! Remember the officious clerk I told you about last time? The one who talks all high and mighty? That guy was groveling in front of Reiner... his face practically twisted like a pug! Hahahaha!

But that's not the point. I was hiding nearby and overheard Reiner asking him for "waste," and saying something about consequences if he didn't hand it over. I didn't catch the last part clearly because just then a rat scurried past me... nearly giving me a heart attack! After Reiner said that, the clerk's face suddenly went pale, like he'd eaten rat poison!
Ah, now I finally get it—why people at the Transport Station have been muttering about picking up "waste" every day. Seems like it's some kind of treasure... I don't think this "waste" is that simple!
I figure it's probably the slag from my side being sent back to your end. I couldn't understand before why the ore was sent back underground after rough processing... now it makes sense!
Brother, your place is close to the mine. If you want to make some money, check around—see if there's any "waste"? There's bound to be plenty... If we can get some, we'll grab it, then run!
Run far away, never come back to this cursed highlands!
I'll send word when the coast is clear. Watch your back!


Your Brother
