Bestowal dialogue

'Sundered and shattered,
metal and bone,
life bled onto the ground.

'In shade of stone,
a south facing wall
wherein the earth
slept once the dead.

'On cold hallowed ground
where dead lay asleep
woke they to greet
our treasure claimed.

'There, by our honoured,
sleeping, and gone,
my brother bid me farewell.

'Now, the dead rise,
stirring the earth
now cursed from where
I fell.

'Our curse recalled;
we shall walk
until the dead
are quelled.'

Background

A shade found wandering in the Barrow-downs -- meaning no ill, it seems -- felt the pull of its brother and struggles to appease whatever force has returned to awaken them.

Objective 1

  • Defeat wights near the place where the brothers placed the Cardolan treasure (0/6)

Dead rise near a south facing wall among burial mounds of Men.

The shade, in its cryptic way, asked you for assistance in ridding the place where he died of the fell barrow-wights.

Wandering Shade: 'Against many did we fight,
for a treasure, which we stole.
Rise they from the ground
at his call
his cackle, cough and cry.
Fighting at the edge of stone
in a hollow where we lay the bones.'

Objective 2

The Wandering Shade is in the northern Barrow-downs.

You found wights, risen from their graves, and defeated them at the pass leading to the southern Barrow-downs.

Wandering Shade: 'Still I linger,
one foe remains.'
