Proper Prospecting Equipment: A Bag

Hey! Welcome back! Now that we know that you're trustworthy, how about we get on with some proper introductions? They call us the Hardened Family - Jan, Pete, and Vick. Everybody knows us around here.

We're the oldest and most successful prospecting crew in all of Coba Plateau. But back when we first started, the artifacts we hunted were ones of Light...

Nowadays we enjoy our well-deserved rest and rarely leave this inn, but we're always happy to chat with those who've traveled beyond the Cordon and back. Say, you want a piece of advice?

There are a few things that you will absolutely need if you want to make it as a Prospector. You can always buy them off the Traders, but then you'd need more gold than you could ever carry. The better and cheaper way is to get them yourself.

You're going to need a prospecting bag that will protect you from the emanations of the darkness. There's only one animal around whose hide can do the job - he rhinoceroses! You can find them in the Mountain Crag to the northwest. If you kill them we can send some of our friends up to gather their hides and make you a prospecting bag.

We hope that there are still some rhinos out there. The world is changing so rapidly that nothing's ever sure... especially when we're holed up in this inn and don't even peek outside for days!
