"We search for an ore or crystal vein and then check if the area near it has a high mana density." Evale replied, "If it has then we can suspect it to be a mana vein and magic materials being present, if not then we still have the normal ore to mine."
"Maybe we can use the undead to cut to the chase?" Eldrian suggested and quickly added pins to all the milling hordes, to ensure he didn't lose track of the locations after dealing with the undead.
If each one had some type of metal or crystal vein and was in fact a mana vein, that would be a total of thirteen possible new magic ore or crystal mines. Eldrian had no idea how many mines were in the Kynigo region-- though since the siege all had been abandoned. Eldrian hadn't gotten to checking that situation out, as food and security were far more pressing.
Regardless, he was certain this would be a game-changer. Especially in the long run if it panned out.
