It's not just a generic key to Mihne Cave, it's THE key!
As Precis has already brilliantly noted, our friends need to kill Barkers to get their hands on the LEA metal, which will allow Dr. Mirage to make the weapons they need to face the Ten Wise Men. But the kind doctor observes that it's not enough to perform a genocide of the smaller Barkers (the poor innocent creatures), as they wouldn't be able to collect enough materials: they need to kill the biggest Barkers they find because, the stronger the Barker, the purer the LEA metal they're made of (please don't ask why).
These weird creatures are confined in the Mihne Cave, a small natural cave on an island to the south. Narl hands Claude the key they need to enter the securely locked cave.
Side note: someone might inquire why Dr. Mirage wouldn't pose any questions about making such a powerful weapon, not to mention actually using it (since in Armlock they're only allowed to create them just for show). The answer is that, to the hesitation of the doctor, Narl replied with mentioning the Crest of Annihilation. While he still doesn't go into specifics about this fearsome crest of grave significance, it's obvious that Dr. Mirage is one of the very few who know about its secret existence.
