Investigating the bodies reveal (16) - that they're mostly a combination of dwarves and orcs. The conflict that happened down here must have been a raid on the Phandelver mine by orcs. Who knows if it was successful or not. There aren't any dwarves left to tell the tale.

On shooting the box, you rolled an unnatural 20 (18+2 because of bullshit baby bullets, BBB for short).

That bad boy pops right open! Inside are a handful of diamonds, worth about 500 gold pieces. There's a note inside, a correspondence between a wizard in Waterdeep and an overseer of the mine, detailing how grateful the mage was for the staff that they provided to him from the Phandelver mine. Reading it further, he requests that if the recipient knows of a way to imbue it with energy from the Elemental Plane of Water, that he could create a weapon that could control the weather and ensure crops were adequately watered for years to come.

The screaming abates, but unfortunately, the chest was rather haunted. With a wisdom save of 7, there's a spot of bad luck that seems to follow him in the form of a ghost who seems very malicious towards messing with Mista at every point humanly possible.

Mechanically speaking, it will cause disadvantage on a roll you attempt to make during the mission. Threading wise, you're free to enjoy the curse and the bad luck that follows in any way you see fit. It'll only haunt him while he's on Maru.
