'Will you accompany me to Glittengrof, <name>?

'I'm told it is not far from Watchers' Roost, but I have been told a lot of things since I crossed the threshold of Mount Gundabad. And not nearly all of them have proven true! According to legend, it was in Glittengrof that Durin the Deathless first discovered the crystals he would use to light the halls of Mount Gundabad. Perhaps that is why Lord Stormhammer's warriors have not yet returned!

'If Glittengrof is truly so beautiful, I must see it for myself... and not just for my survey! Let us go, my friend!'

Background

Among the long-abandoned caverns of Gloomingtarn lies Glittengrof, the ancient crystal-lodes of Durin the Deathless.

Objective 1

Glittengrof can be found to the southwest of Watchers' Roost.

Spall has asked you to join him in exploring Glittengrof. You should travel to Glittengrof.

As you step deeper into Glittengrof, Spall mumbles something to himself

Objective 2

  • Talk to Spall

Spall can be found at your side in Gloomingtarn.

You have begun your survey of Glittengrof and it appears Spall wishes to speak to you. You should talk to Spall.

NOTE: If you become separated from Spall, use the horn he gave you to call him to your side.

Spall: 'Alas for Glittengrof!
'If it weren't for these accursed spiders, I could spend hours- nay- days admiring the crystals of Glittengrof! Even their webs have done little to dim their light! I must admit, my friend, I had intended to harvest some of these crystals for my studies, but now I find that I cannot bring myself to raise my pickaxe. To my mind, it would be like defiling an ancient museum!'
Seemingly blind to the danger of the glass-spiders, an awestruck Spall looks around Glittengrof. After a moment, something catches his eye in the distance.
'Wait a moment, <name>... do you see that?
'A-ha! It seems that some of the old crystals have fallen to the ground and shattered. If they are just broken shards, I do not feel so badly about collecting them. After all, the spiders have no use for them!
'Will you help me collect some of the shards, my friend?'
