The verified update
Quarrytop is the named mining village where the player investigates recurring earthquakes.
The evidence was checked against Natsume title announcement and is current to 2026-07-31. The date attached to the underlying source is 2026-03-11.
What the source establishes
- Mining defines the village
- earthquakes drive its story problem
- caves elsewhere contain ore and gems.
Why it matters
Keep location facts and causal theories separate until the story supplies evidence.
That distinction helps players make a release, platform, route, story, or purchase decision using the narrow fact actually supported by the source.
The remaining boundary
The announcement does not say whether mining causes the earthquakes or reveal their solution.
Any later change should be dated and linked to a new first-party notice rather than silently overwriting the historical source.
