Summary
The Incident in Redspeckle Mine is a negotiation-based dungeon adventure. Azers have come from a mysterious dungeon complex recently unearthed by a mine, and this has spooked the miners, with some calling them omens of an imminent volcanic eruption. Can the mine be saved?
DM Background
Redspeckle Mine has been operating for just over two years, and is turning into full swing producing iron ore from the black, red, and golden rocks (actually pyrite) in the area. Recently, while tunneling in a particularly rich deposit, they broke through into another, larger tunnel complex. Since they broke through, Azers have been coming up out of the caves.
Some of the more superstitious townsfolk, both miners and not, worry that this is a sign of a displeased spirit within the mountain and an impending volcanic eruption. A few have already left in a panic, bringing production from the mine and the nearby farms and orchards to a sharp drop, and more leave every day.
The Azers themselves have been living in their fortress of (name here) for several decades, mining and establishing themselves. However, they are not the oldest habitation here by far. (Name here) was built in the upper reaches of Kuo-Toan scouting tunnels from the age when their worshipped evils swam in the depths. Cave-ins and avalanches had sealed the entrances to the surface, giving the Azers a relatively safe lair, until the complex was breached by the miners.

Hook
The PCs could be brought to Redspeckle Mine for any number of reasons. They might simply be travelling in the area and hear about it at a nearby village or inn, or they might enter the town itself. They could also be hired by someone with an interest in the production of the mine, perhaps a king or duke who needs the iron for military purposes, the master of a smiths' guild, or a powerful merchant.
Redspeckle Town
Redspeckle Town is a small mining boomtown on the side of a mountain recently cleared from the hunting range of a manticore.
