 <p>After inspecting the note and stockpile of Blackrock, I tried to find Lord Lore Denin, Commander of True Britannian Forces and a local Lord of Whispering Winds.

	+	<p>[[Image:Bomb-BRbomb.png\|left]]Blackrock has once against been the rage of news reports across Britannia ever since a Royal Demolisher showed up on the doorstep of the High Council planted a rather large bomb near the Chambers. Fortunately, thanks to the work of the Britannian Armed Forces and citizens of Britannia, the bombs have been dismantled and moved to a secure location. However, it was not the startling appearance of the bombs, nor the sensational adventure to disarm them that gave us warning that those loyal to Casca were dabbling with Blackrock. A report submitted earlier from Whispering Winds had noted the appearance of mine shafts said to be hauling Blackrock from the depths of a rich vein that runs beneath the hamlet. It was just after the appearance of a second shaft, evidence of ramped up production, that the Blackrock bombs appeared. Wanting answers, I headed to the Council Chambers after hearing word that the Armed Forces had confiscated one of the bombs for studying.</p>
	+
	+	<p>I unfortunately arrived too late to partake in the discussions, but Forrest was there and appeared to have some knowledge of the potent rock. He was locking up the bomb they had captured the night before, but said he had time to answer my questions.[[Image:Bomb-Shaft1.png\|right]]</p>
	+
	+	<p><b>Vivian Fellows (VF): </b>So I am clear, this is the bomb that was found outside the Council Hall?</p>
	+	<p><b>Forrest (F):</b> It is, and we must be careful because it is indeed a live bomb, but we can rest easy it is only on a timer now that Lady Silverbrook has disabled the remote triggers.</p>
	+
	+	<p><b>VF:</b> You seem to know some about Blackrock, can you give Britannians an idea of just how powerful this bomb is?</p>
	+	<p><b>F:</b> Phew, if this thing had gone off? It would have certainly taken out all of Compassion Grove. It may have even taken out the guard post on the road to the west. That was a large quantity that was <i>densely</i> concentrated.</p>
	+
	+	<p><b>VF:</b> Densely concentrated, I notice you stress that part, why...</p>
	+	<p><b>F:</b> Because it is unusual. The amount of deposits that produce the large veins that could produce this amount are very rare...</p>
	+
	+	<p><b>VF: </b>How rare?</p>
	+	<p><b>F: </b>Rare enough that the only deposits I know of are in the Lost Lands.</p>
	+
	+	<p><b>VF: </b>How about the mines that have been reported in Whispering Winds?</p>
	+	<p><b>F:</b> I don't have any experience with those mines, however I have read of them in the Tribune. If it is indeed true and there is a large deposit, <i>on</i> Britannian ground... Well I must say, that would be a find.</p>
