Equestria.
Once a land of peace and harmony, but no longer.
Everything changed during the Long Night about 5 years ago. A heretical cult revealed itself all across Equestria, instigating a revolt against the Alicorn Sisters. A civil war erupted that nearly tore the country apart. After a short and bloody conflict, the Royal Sisters managed to defeat their leader Nightmare Moon.
Victory came at a heavy price. Their forces decimated, the Equestrian government no longer had the resources to keep order outside of the most important cities, such as Canterlot or Manehattan. More isolated areas were left to fend for their own and all sorts of terrible creatures roam the countryside unchecked.
With poverty at an all-time high, many ponies have decided to leave their homes and travel far and wide to find work and gold wherever they can. Whatever your reason to start your journey, you have now arrived at a small village at the edge of a grand forest. A worn sign in front of the gate says “SILVERHAZE FALLS”. You notice some other travelers are arriving as well.
Maybe this is a good time to introduce yourself? In these times you can always use somepony to guard your back.

As the 3 of you pass the gate a donkey and a unicorn wearing iron armor approach your group.
The donkey shouts to Sweet Heart "Finally. We've been waiting for you, Mister Firethorn. You're late!"
He overlooks the rest of the party with disdain. "I take it these are your servants?"

With that I kick myself off the mines in search for a better life.

"Great. Adventurers. I don't have time for this."
He turns to the unicorn. "You take care of them. And if you see Miss Firethorn, call me IMMEDIATELY."
The unicorn just nods as the donkey walks off and then turns to you.
"I'm sorry about that. The Colonel can be quite uncouth at times. Let me welcome you to Silverhaze Falls. You say you're looking for work? I might have something in mind, if you can fight."
He sighs.
"I'm afraid there's not much else, Silverhaze Falls used to be a thriving mining town. But there's not much left of it."

"Right, follow me."
The guard takes you to a small guard tower.
From here you get a good view of the village and surrounding area. The forest stretches on to the north as far as the eye can see. To the south you see a cliff with a magnificent waterfall and a river flowing next to the village.
The view is marred however by a few dark green plumes of smoke coming out of small holes in the cliff.
>>386787
He points to those plumes. "That's the reason why mining has almost ceased here."
>>386789
The unicorn points to the forest.
"As you know we are expecting a guest, miss Firethorn to arrive shortly, but with all these animal attacks, I fear she might need protection. I'd like you to go down the road and escort her here. Should you encounter any attacks, you fend them off."
He pauses.
"My father is really looking forward to her arrival and I'm sure he'll pay well for her security. He'd pay even more if you could follow and exterminate those beast wherever they come from. We've already lost 5 guards to them."

"What is that…. "
Use supreme survivor to spot check what is the source of the smoke.

It's too far to make out properly. You only see it comes from certain crevices in the rock. When you look down more you see what looks like mining entrances. You deduct that that parts of that mine must be flooded with that green stuff.
The unicorn looks sadly at it.
"As I said it's a long story. Silverhaze was once a prosperous mining village. About 70 years ago however, somepony in the deeper mining shafts dug open some chamber and it released an extremely poisonous gas. Many ponies died and the lower shafts and a lot of the upper shafts became dangerous to enter. Some ponies still try however, since there's still many riches down there."
>>386796
>>386794
He nods. "Excellent. Take the north route out through the forest and you'll run into her. One word of warning." He points again to the green plumes. "Should you find some holes with that type of smoke coming out in the forest, don't come close to it. If you do somehow end up in it, come back here immediately and go to the church. The healer there will know what to do."

You arrive at a tall stone building. It seems a bit worn down but still beautiful. Probably a leftover from the time when Silverhaze was still prosperous.
As you go in, you enter a large hall at the end you see two giant statues of the Alicorn Sisters surrounded by candles and offerings. To the side you see some other smaller altars you can't quite make out from here. A unicorn mare sits before them in prayer. She is probably the healer since you don't see anypony else here.

You arrive at the Inn. It seems small but comfortable with a big dining chamber with a fireplace.. You see a mare near the counter arranging some bottles, she hasn't noticed you yet.

"It's a terrible thing. I've treated about a dozen ponies already who ignore the warnings about the lower mining shafts and had to be dragged back here. The gas has some unusual properties, the coat of a pony instantly falls off when it touches you and inhaling it a large dose of it"She pauses. "Well it is extremely painful. If left untreated the flesh of the patient starts to decay rapidly and the pony dies. If the patient can get here in time it can take a day or even a week of contant treatment to recover."

"Harsh indeed. I feel the gas is magical in nature, it is simply unnatural. But nopony has gone down to the lower depths of the mine to find the source of it."
She looks you over.
"If you're a healer I suppose you know healing spells. Those are usually enough to stabilize the patient. The trick to curing it is simply how long you have to keep doing it. I've once kept healing a pony for 10 days with my assistant Sparkling before he got better."
>>386821
"Nopony knows. The entire village is talking about it, but neither Lord Silverhaze or the guards or even Swift want to talk about what they're doing here. Some ponies believe Lord Silverhaze is trying to discover a way to clear the mines from the gas."
>>386822
She smiles.
"I'm glad you like it here. Not many ponies like Silverhaze. Most ponies who live here only do because they don't have the money to go anywhere else."
