"Brigands and half-orcs from the south have been pressing upon the Greenway as of late, threatening the good folk of Bree-town. You have been enlisted to join the line of Wardens who march against these foes, for brigands possess a chaotic nature, and will not stand against such organized defence."

Background

You have agreed to join the line of Wardens defending the approach to Bree-town from a band of brigands approaching from the south.

Objective 1

Andrew Oakhurst: 'I am glad you agreed to aid us, <name>, for there is a gap in our line, and I would have it filled.
'Speak with Toby Thorndyke, just ahead, and he will show you to your spot in the line.
'It is very important that you not abandon your place in the line once the attack begins! An organized defence is our best weapon against bands of brigands such as the one that approaches.'
Andrew Oakhurst says, "Take up your position next to Toby Thorndyke, <name>."

Objective 2

Toby Thorndyke is at your place in the line of Wardens defending Bree-town from attack from the south.

Objective 3

  • Talk to Andrew Oakhurst

Andrew Oakhurst is behind the line of Wardens south of Bree-town.

The attack has been successfully repelled, and you should speak now to Warden Oakhurst.

Andrew Oakhurst: 'Valiantly done, <name>! You have done us all a great service and are deserving of the highest praise for your role in holding the line!
'I'd like to see those brigands try this again; they thought that the ability to wield a blade would be enough to challenge a line of Wardens? Are they mad? They must be!'
Andrew Oakhurst: 'Let us return to Bree, <name>, and we will discuss some of the finer points of your performance during the attack.'
