The Silverspring Mine is one of the premier, up-and-coming mining fronts looking to compete with the Thunderhead Mine in the rolling foothills west of Wooster. Striking quickly on a particularly rich vein of myrillium rendered even greater fruit when the miners discovered abundant strains of silver created as byproduct. Since then, aspiring laborers looking to establish themselves in the rapidly growing field of mining flocked to Silverspring hoping to get in early while the mine was still fresh.
In the weeks following, many a Wooster local could recount stories of miners that had stumbled into town, feverish from a particularly fortunate day of myrillium hunting. The new coin in their pockets courtesy of the ore exchange often made them easy targets for the shadier denizens of Wooster or would otherwise cause quite a commotion at the saloon as round after round of drinks was bought and paid for.
Recently however, not a single Silverspring miner has been spotted in town and after their absence stretched past a few days the Wooster mayor sent a courier up to check in with the site. The courier has still yet to return from the mine just a few miles into the mountains and the townspeople of Wooster have grown anxious. The success of the mine and commotion of its workers had encouraged the locals and the promise of the mine’s new revenue and appeal drawing in additional settlers is not lost on town officials seeking to learn what has befallen the miners.
