Kill Mithril Dragons (Level 112) until you receive some chewed bones.

Note: Do not use the mangled bones, or you'll be fighting a level 100+ angry spirit.

Kill the dragon right here, at the entrance. If you look in the background, there is a log you could use for a quick escape. After killing the dragon, ride the log and you will end up downstream of the waterfall. Go north, back to the waterfall, and go to this spot:

You will put the spirit to rest and it will leave behind a reward.
