An older man, a lot of the crowd centers on the table he is at, hoping to be the first to get any fresh information. When he finds out you're interested in helping, he excuses himself from the "tavern" and invites you to a quiet spot outdoors where you can talk easier. He rambles in typical rural fashion, but you are able to get the important information without too much trouble. "Them varmints are up at Old Man Sampson's place. Fortunately they went for a fallow field being used as a pasture first and only got some livestock. However, I suspect another day and they'll be breaking the surface well beyond that; I can only hope their tunnel network isn't too advanced yet. Sampson and his family have already moved to a neighbor's until we can get a fix on a solution. A lot of folks will be glad you stopped by when you did. We appear to have a breeding pair trying to establish a full fledged nest on our hands, and it could have gotten out of control real quick; still could, I suppose, but you folks look like you can handle yourselves just fine. Can't pay you a lot, but we can give the value for any of parts you aren't able to or don't want to carry with you. Ankheg shells are particularly desired, so if you can take care to keep those intact, and for pete's sake, don't do like some of the guards did once and use fire; blamed idiots almost did more damage than the vermin. Remember, we can't pay you if our source of money, the crops, are gone."</blockquote>
