Quest Text

Bestowal Dialogue

'For too long have Orcs dwelt within the sacred mountain of my people! Gundabad was home to the first of us! It was home to the best of us! Let us take it back!

Durin bares his teeth and gives the assembled crowd a ferocious smile. Then he breathes deeply, and in a quieter tone he addresses you.

'Are you prepared, <name>? Shall I give the order to march?'

Background

The great armies of Durin and Prince Ingór begin their assault upon Gundabad, but the forces that defend it will not relinquish the Mountain-home without a fight.

Objective 1

Talk to Durin and begin the assault upon Gundabad

Durin is on the upper level of Annâk-khurfu, waiting to give the word for the assault to begin.

Durin: 'Then it begins: the War of Three Peaks is upon us! For Gundabad!'

Objective 2

Talk to Durin inside Zarkul-sulûn during the War of Three Peaks

Durin is inside Zarkul-sulûn, commanding his forces amid the chaos of the War of Three Peaks.

Durin: 'What is the meaning of this? Ingór was supposed to lead his Zhélruka at the head of the charge! Why then did the dwarves under his command dawdle in the rear, allowing my Longbeards to bear the brunt of the first impact? What can it be but cowardice?

'<name>! Find this Zhélruka coward! I demand answers! Does he still dawdle outside?'

Objective 3

Talk to Prince Ingór north-east of Zarkul-sulûn during the War of Three Peaks

Prince Ingór is north-east of Zarkul-sulûn during the War of Three Peaks, standing atop a barricade and commanding his Zhélruka.

Ingór: 'Speak not so to me, <race>! I know why Durin wanted the Zhélruka to lead the charge... he thought to expend us at the tip of the spear, throwing away our lives and holding his own people in reserve! He thought to spend Zhélruka blood to gain Gundabad... and reward it to his Longbeards!

'But he is not as canny as he believes, and I did not fall for his scheme!'
