I just can't get in the Stout mines. Whatever I do, I just can't find the bastard thing. My mind is imploding from frustration.....must...get...help......AAARGHH

I just found it last night. It's north of the stout mines in a clearing. It's laying next to a body and a treasure chest. The way I remember it was: as you are leaving the stout mines, walk past 2 right turns, at the next fork go right, after you do that look for an opening on the left. Good Luck

look at the mape north east of the mines, the writ is with a dead guy and cheast in the
"center"

Ah the old favourite.
1 look at map
2 locate stout mine
3 follow trail back
4 see that island of trees with a clearing in the middle
5 you do good the body is in there
6 get off your horse as he cannot get in which is why I and so many others missed it.

For those of us ready to conquer the Stout Mines, here is the location of the Writ!
( Hey, The Search Feature is cool!) LOL~first time I have had to use it
