Background
Malga Mine is where Rolent gets most of its sepith from, esmelas in particular, to use as export goods.

In S.1202, a large esmelas septium crystal was discovered. After Estelle and Joshua finish their mission at Perzel Farm, they are assigned to fetch this crystal for the mayor. After being let in and heading down to the lower tunnels, they soon talked to Mine Chief Gaton who gave them the crystal.

At that moment, heavy rumbling shook the mine and a monster infestation soon broke through to the whole bottom level of the mine. The bracers went through the whole bottom level, rescuing everyone including a new miner. After the rescue both bracers left for the Mayor's Residence to deliver the crystal. It is later revealed that the new miner, who had run away, was part of a Sky Bandit gang, and had caused the cave-in in his efforts to spy a good theft target.

The septium crystal, intended for Queen Alicia's birthday as a present from the people of Rolent, was later stolen by Josette Capua, and the monster den uncovered by the bandit has since been blocked up.

Background
During Estelle's second visit to Rolent, the Malga Mine was still functioning, but had to be evacuated later due to the coma cases related to the sudden fog enveloping the region.

The country-wide Orbal Shutdown Phenomenon after the Aureole's return strands the miners in the lower tunnels due to the elevators not working. To make matters worse, the monster den is once again opened, swarming the mine with monsters.

Ridge, who had been sent to help before Estelle and her group arrived, managed to hold them off until the latter rescued the miners again with the help of the Zero Field Generators, but he wasn't able to stand against the monsters' leader. To rescue him, Estelle's group had to fight a massive Armored Hydra, and after its defeat the rest of the monsters scattered, solving the den problem for good.
