According to an inscription of the Legion of the Dead, the Stone is balanced but not pure.

Subsequently, in order for the dwarves to prosper they need to face the gangue and carve it out of themselves.

Involvement

The shade is summoned during the quest The Gangue Shade. Upon its defeat it was supposed to drop the Dead Metal Bucket but due to a coding error it randomly drops a common item instead.
