Description

Okay, <name>, we need to get to the earth portal at the back of the cave.

I've "procured" a ride for us. Why walk when we can ride in style? I hope you don't mind mine carts.

Let me know when you're ready.

You will receive: 9 40 (or 16 54 at max level)

Completion

Oh no! My weapons and totems!

They're destroyed!!!

Notes

Talk to him again.

Ooh, this is gonna be good!

Hang on!

The mine cart goes for a wild ride. Completely unexpectedly, it falls down a mine shaft!

Initiate Goldmine yells: OH NO!

Goldmine's totems and weapons fly from the cart.

Initiate Goldmine yells: My totems!!!

The cart keeps moving down the hill and is about to fly into a deep chasm.

Initiate Goldmine yells: JUMP!!!

Goldmine and the player jump out of the cart, narrowly avoiding liquification.

Talk to Goldmine again:

You're gonna have to protect me, <name>. Without my weapons and totems, I'm defenseless!
