Rather then a single tunnel with small branches leading to other areas of the mine. This massive mountain is nothing more then a mine. The inside is full of rich minerals and ores. Various tunnels spiral, climb and descend within this mighty mountain. The tunnels are supported by massive thick wooden supports. The entrance to the mine is guarded by two large Earth Golems. On the surface near the entrance is two buildings. One is a trading center and the other a refinement building for the ores and crystals. While the mine is guarded. It is best to beware that Feral Beastfolk or other unruly things may have infiltrated the mine.

A large humanoid beetle slowly stomps over to the entrance of the mine. Kavar'qo wears his old mining attire and grips the tools on his belt to keep them from swaying around. He stops in front of the two golems and stares at them for a brief moment. It takes a bit of time for him to find his english words, sonce his mandibles make it a tad difficult. "....I received a message earlier....My experiences are required here?"

The Golems look at each other then look back towards The unknown Beetle, then nod and then one of them speak to the beetle, " So what is your name, we require either a name or a pass to allow access to these mines."

The beetle nods. "....My name is Kavar'qo....I was once a miner of the volcano mine...27 miles southwest of here."

The Golems Stare for a moment and then smile, " Oh right Kavar'qo, you are required in the 4th main cave system, the one who called for you should be there." The Golems adjust their positions to allow Kavar'qo access to the cave and turn to him "good luck we heard a odd noise a week ago in the deeper portions of the cave system, hopefully its nothing major".

Kavar'qo nods and stalks slowly walking into the cave. One pair of arms are held by each other behind his back while the other pair hangs on his belt. "....Considering that my help is needed.....I fear it may be."
He easily navigates through the cave system like he once lived in it, making fast time to the 4th main cavern.

The cavern looks normal from its entrance but in its back is a Female Wolfen staring at her clipboard while checking the now out lights and caved in section, who starts speaking to herself," I seriously hope this contact arrives soon I'm getting tired of this already , there's something wrong with this section of the cave and I can't even found out what!"

The slow steps of the beetle can be heard through the darkness as well as the scrape of his horn on the ceiling. Then the highlights of his black eyes shine in view. "...I assume you're the one....who messaged me?"

Kanlek smiles as she hears Kavar'qo speak,"Yes I did and as you can tell a section of the cave has caved in leading to some of the lights going out they can be easily replaced but the real problem is what caused the cave-in and the new problem of this chamber's stability especially since this is one of the main routes that the Golems of this region take to lay their elder bodies to rest" Kanlek walks over to Kavar'qo and blinks a little to allow her eyes to adjust for a moment, " as a Mine shaft Inspector I have to make sure this route is secure and stable so I apologize a head of time if I become troublesome during this Venture, so want to help me remove this rubble so we can begin?"

Kavar'qo nods and looks around Kanlek to the rest of the cavern. He makes a few clicks and his antennas twitch to listen in. When he hears the echo he could hear that it was closed off not far from them. "...I see....Very well..."
He waits for her to either move out of his way to to head to the cave in first.

Kanlek goes over to the cave-in and starts moving the rock quickly but extremely carefully the rocks are large but nothing she can't really handle.

Kavar'qo takes a deep breathe as he concentrates. He raises all four of his claws in front of the cave in and the entire pile of rubble start to shake ad lift straight upward back into the ceiling and reform the roof. Immediately afterwards, he digs his claws into the roof and with a twist, the loose rock condenses and binds together, forming a solid stone ceiling.

Kanlek sighs with relief," now with that problem done can you sense anything farther down the tunnel my only guess right now is a sandworm of some sort or a feral" she scratches her chin and howls down the tunnel listening for the echo, getting an odd what sounds like a groan coming back with the echo. "odd wonder what that is" she says as she cautiously walks towards that directions

Kavar'qo twitches his antennas to listen to the echo as well and didnt hear any other cave ins, but he does hear the groaning. "...Probably the cause....of the cave ins."
He continues forward to see what it is, letting his claws and horn scrape across the walls and ceiling to find anymore weak points in the rock.

Kanlek starts running closer as she hears the echos more and then she recognizes the moaning to be that of a golem. "A Golem Caused these cave-ins...the reason why I'm not sure" she says as she rushes to the moaning Golem.

Kavar'qo nods and lets Kanlek run to the golem. He stops in the middle of the hall and digs his claws into the walls and ceiling. He found another weakpoint in the structure and used his element to concentrate the rock into solid stone. "...I do not know either...but for the mine;s sake...we better lead it out."

Kanlek stares in shock and gasps as she looks at the disfigured Earth Golem laying on the ground still moaning. "What...what happened to you?" . To her response it looks up at her twitches and she jumps back as it jolts in a random direction and then it moans again and speaks in a broken and inaudible language, she backs up and tries to get it to follow her by motioning to it to move with her but with no avail. Kanlek looks towards Kavar'qo and shrugs" Any clue how we can probably move this thing, Kavar'qo?".

Kavar'qo stares at Kanlek for a moment, wondering if she was serious about the question. Shrugging it off he nods and walks up to the Golem. "....Stay still." With a few swift motions of his arms, he cuts the earth directly underneath the Golem into a slab and levitates it just a little above the ground. He gestures to Kanlek with his extra arms to start heading out of the mine so he can move the Golem out.

Kanlek Nods and starts walking ahead while listening for anything else in the cave and leave back to entrance to the cave giving him room to move and she looks at the golem oddly from a distance and then looks back forward as she starts to look back at her clipboard writing down something. "To think it was a deformed Golem to cause all of that...that is troubling, I would follow you out but I still have a job to do in here so go outside and show the Golems that Golem they'll they'll take it off your hands and your payment will be sent to you as soon as I'm done here."
She goes back to inspecting the area around the cave (and later moving deeper into the cave to checkout the Earth Obelisk).

Kavarqo nods and heads back to the entrance with the Golem. Despite his lack of interest, he was a bit concerned to how a Golem got this badly injured. They're not the easiest to break, even with elemental powers. He blinks his eyes as he exits into the sunlight and he presents the injured Golem to the guards. "....This one...is the source...of the cave in."
