Quest Text

Bestowal dialogue 'Maybe we'll learn something if we set our sights higher. 'It's clear that Gáfin was killed by Orcs. According to the scouts, the Orc Uflúk commands the camp Zarkul-sulûn, to the west. If anyone has the information Gáfin was trying to bring back, it would be Uflúk. 'But I wouldn't ask for you to venture forth alone. This could be another chance for Aighrig to prove herself to us, if she is willing!' Background With few clues as to what Gáfin discovered before he died, hunting down the Orc commander Uflúk for information may be the next best option. Objective 1 Talk to Aighrig Rékkur has suggested bringing Aighrig with you to the Orc camp. Aighrig stands before the stairs to Annâk-khurfu. Aighrig: 'I was just feeding Lúkhag. She has been very brave lately. But yes, I would be happy to aid you in your hunt. 'I do not think a commander such as Uflúk will be caught off-guard wandering around. There must be a war horn in the Orc camp that we can use to trick him into emerging.' Objective 2 Use war horn and defeat Uflúk Use the whistle to summon Aighrig to your side The Orc camp Zarkul-sulûn is located west of Annâk-khurfu. Aighrig believes that Uflúk can be lured out if you find a war horn to use in the camp. Uflúk says, "Hah! Not the fight I was expecting, but I'll take it." A report lies crumpled among Uflúk's belongings Objective 3 Show Aighrig the report Use the whistle to summon Aighrig to your side Upon defeating Uflúk, you found a report among his belongings. Discussing this report with Aighrig may reveal something. Aighrig: 'This report details the health of bats under Angmarim care. They are raising and training bats for the Orcs -- perhaps this is what Gáfin discovered....' A troubled expression falls upon Aighrig's face. 'The one who wrote this report is someone named... Latharn. <name>, I recognize that name -- it belongs to an Angmarim who is an accomplished beast-tamer. But that is all I know. 'I believe I know where the Angmarim are raising their bats. May I ask you to bring this report to Rékkur? I am sorry, but I must investigate alone.' Objective 4 Deliver the report to Rékkur Rékkur awaits your return at Annâk-khurfu, to the east of Zarkul-sulûn. Aighrig has asked you to bring the report to him. Rékkur: 'Lúkhag flew off not too long ago -- and where is Aighrig? This doesn't bode well.' Rékkur patiently listens to your account of what happened before reading through the report you found. 'Why does Aighrig require such secrecy? Though I suppose we can only wait for her... 'The Orcs had a hand in Gáfin's death, and now the Angmarim might have too. Gáfin, my old friend, what did you get yourself into?'
