You need a lot of offers if you want to enter the locked ruins on your farm.

There is one
second area to the Lost Forest Caves with another entrance near the lake to the east
but it's more of a tunnel and has less ore than the main area.


You will find one camp with a campfire you can turn on backup, and several pre-placed craft drawings you can finish using material from the forest: a sawmill, ore smelter, furnace and a simple workbench.
