Bestowal dialogue

'Danger seems to follow you wherever you go, <name>. I like that. I will be Wadu's Ghost and defeat the true enemies of Dunland: faithless clans who swear loyalty to Saruman.

'The land to the west is called the Starkmoor. You say that Lheu Brenin wished to know the state of its herds? There are many herd-animals in the Starkmoor, and he who controls them will have much food production close at hand. Enough for an army? Aye.

'There is a farmhouse in the north-west corner of the Starkmoor, among the hills. I have seen it from afar. I will meet you there, and we can scout for the information Lheu Brenin desires to know.'

Nona has agreed to meet you in the Starkmoor to scout for the information Lheu Brenin needs.

Nona: 'The herds of Starkmoor feed many of the clans of Dunland. If this farmland is held by those loyal to Saruman, he will have a source of food for his armies, but can also starve those who oppose him.
'Go up to the farmhouse at the top of the slope to the west and see how things stand, <name>. You should also scout some of the fields and enclosures nearby, to the west.'

Objective 3

  • Talk to Nona in the Starkmoor

Nona is by the farmland in the northwestern reaches of the Starkmoor.

You scouted the farmland in the northwestern Starkmoor and should speak with Nona.

Nona: 'I think this is what Lheu Brenin feared, <name>. The farms of the Starkmoor are not held by friendly clansmen any longer.
'The main trading settlement to the south may be similar, but we will not know it without going there.'
