Bestowal dialogue

'I doubt there is much else to learn here, <name>. I would like to continue on with our mission. We should next investigate the spiders to the east. The Rangers report the spiders there isolate themselves from the spiders of Torech Ungol. I suspect I may know their reasons for this, but I would like to confirm my suspicions with my own eyes before I share my thoughts.

'I will bring the Ungoladan prisoner back to Echad Taerdim. Mablung may wish to question Felgúr himself. I will meet you near the spider-infested forest, Taurlingol.'

Background

Legolas wishes to next investigate the spider-infested woods in eastern Cirith Ungol, Taurlingol.

Objective 1

According to the Rangers, the spider-infested forest of Taurlingol can be found in eastern Cirith Ungol.

You should find Taurlingol.

You hear shouts nearby!

Objective 2

  • Find the source of the shouting

As you entered Taurlingol, you heard someone shouting.

You should find the source of the shouting.

Atli Spider-bane is engaged in combat with a giant spider!
Atli Spider-bane says, "I will not fall to you, you foul, hairy, skittering mass of legs! I am the Spider-bane!"

Objective 3

You have found Atli Spider-bane in combat with a giant spider of Taurlingol.

You should help Atli defeat the spider!

Atli moves to a safer location to tend to his injury
Atli Spider-bane says, "Take that you horrible beast! Oof, I think she got me..."
Atli Spider-bane says, "I need to catch my breath is all, let us move somewhere safer."

Objective 4

Atli has moved to a safe location nearby.

You should find and talk to Atli Spider-bane.

Atli: 'Oof, thanks for the assistance, <name>. And Legolas is here as well! I am happy to see some faces with fewer than eight eyes! It also helps that you're not trying to devour me. Haha! Erk....'
Atli doubles over and grabs his leg. His injuries seem to be worse than he let on.
'Aye, she chewed up my leg something fierce. Oh, don't worry about me, I will be fine. I just need to rest a bit....'

Objective 5

Legolas is tending to Atli Spider-bane's injuries on an overlook near Taurlingol.

You should talk to Legolas.

Legolas: 'I apologize for not arriving sooner, <name>. I did see the spider you fought, and my suspicions were proven correct: these are the Mirkwood spiders, Iphantamel's own brood. This forest is too small to hold all that vanished from Eryn Lasgalen, however. Perhaps some have already entered Torech Ungol. I admit I do not fully understand the quarrelling between spiders. It matters not. The old enemy of my people has been found, and we must deal out vengeance upon them.
'I must tend to Atli's wounds, thus I must rely on you to venture into Taurlingol and slay my enemies for me. I know that you are capable of this task.'
You ask Legolas how he and Atli are acquainted. He allows the briefest hint of a smile to cross his face.
'Ah, I encountered him when we were last in Lhingris, in a very similar situation, in fact. He was engaged in combat with several very large brood-mothers, and I stepped in to assist him. I believe he was embarrassed, and accused me of "stealing his kill".
'But that is quite absurd!'

Objective 6

Legolas has asked for your assistance with tasks in Taurlingol.

You should complete 'The Daughters of Iphantemel,' 'The Trees of Taurlingol,' 'Before They Become a Problem,' and 'The Only Solution.'

Objective 7

You should inform Legolas of your success defeating the Mirkwood Spiders.

Legolas can be found on a hill near Taurlingol.

Legolas: 'Well done, <name>. With the death of Iphantamel's daughters, the rest of the spiders will likely disperse into Cirith Ungol. I will return to track and kill them myself, one by one. For now, we must escort Atli to Echad Taerdim. He should be able to travel on his wounded leg, but it is not safe to remain here.'
