Balin's journal I

This journal is found on a corpse along with Balin's first map and the upper shaft key.

Associated Quest

 * Hey, Work's on in the Mines!
 * Subterranean Life

Contents

 * Foreman Balin's journal - the first fragment


 * Work is going as planned. It seems our yield will be even greater than anticipated. Moreover, I believe we can squeeze much more from this mine. We'll delve deeper, bring up more wealth and Vergen will regain its past significance.

Note

 * The Balin's Journal quest item that you can find in the mines is a clear reference to The Lord of the Rings. While exploring the mines of Moria, the Fellowship finds "The Book of Khazad-dùm" written by Balin before he died in Moria, where he was buried.
