Quest Text

Bestowal dialogue 'Orcs are a trickier lot than you might give them credit for. Travelling from Eregion to here in the Dale through the underground of Khazad-dûm can take days, even when you know where you are going. Heading through the Redhorn Gate is much faster, especially when you are bringing large and heavy loads. 'Mazog has dispatched a company of Orcs to the Fallen Ice, north-west of here. They are attempting to dig through the wrath of Caradhras. 'They cannot be allowed a second path through the mountain. Head up there and interrupt their efforts.' Background The Orcs of Moria are attempting to dig through the avalanche blocking the Redhorn Gate and gain access to Eregion. Objective 1 Defeat Orcs at the Fallen Ice (0/8) The Orcs are digging at the Fallen Ice, north-west of Nanduhirion. Raskwith asked you to stop the Orcs who are attempting to dig through the avalanche at the Fallen Ice. Objective 2 Talk to Raskwith at Nanduhirion Raskwith is at Nanduhirion, south-east of the Fallen Ice. Raskwith will be pleased to hear the Orcs' efforts have been disrupted. Raskwith: 'Mazog will have to resort to the depths for his travels now. While he has always had them, it is easier for us to stop him when he only has one route. 'Thank you, <name>, for your aid.'
