Quest Text

Bestowal dialogue 'I wasn't expecting to see a friendly face in this desolate area! 'The Angmarim are making it difficult for me to study the bats living here. Unfortunately, I'm no fighter. 'If your mind is set on entering Tithzagáf, would you collect some bat samples for me? Many of the bats only answer to the enemy now, but they may still be of use to us in death.' Background The scholar Hórskur has been trying to study the bats of Grytholm, but with little success. Objective 1 Collect bat samples (0/4) Hórskur has asked for samples from the hostile bats in Tithzagáf, the cave on Grytholm. You can collect samples by defeating the bats and their masters. Objective 2 Deliver bat samples to Hórskur You have collected several bat samples for Hórskur, who is waiting outside of Tithzagáf. Hórskur: 'Many thanks! I shall study them and see if we dwarves can prepare for whatever the Angmarim and Orcs are planning with these bats.'
