Bestowal Dialogue
'Once you are ready, we shall depart.'
 Twist: Persistent Cold
As your party climbs the slopes of the Redhorn, the twins grow silent and conversation comes to a standstill. Only the howling wind fills the air now.
Background
The Redhorn is not kind to any soul, person or beast. Raging blizzards and the biting cold stand in your way, daring you to continue.
Objective 1
Your party has paused to take a break from the snow, but its time to move on.
Elladan has something to say to you.
- Elladan: 'Neither Elrohir nor I enjoy the idea of taking the pass, but I confess that Orcs are not the sole reason. Many years ago, our mother travelled through here to visit our grandparents in Lórien. She never made it to her destination -- Orcs captured her. When we realized she had disappeared, my brother and I set out to find her. After weeks of searching, we found her alive, but...'
- Elladan's voice trails off as he turns away.
- 'We'll keep each other safe. We must.'
Objective 2

- Elladan says, "Careful! Look, up ahead."
- Elrohir says, "Ready your weapons!"
- Elrohir says, "I can barely see through all this snow!"
- Elrohir says, "Any Orcs who try to sneak up on us will have a much easier time of it."
- Elladan says, "I hope we don't come across Orcs. Braving this weather is enough of a challenge."
- Elrohir says, "But even just encountering them might tell us something of the Enemy's plans."
- Elrohir says, "Elladan, <name>, there's someone over there! It almost looks like..."
- Elladan says, "Elrohir! Don't --"

- Elladan says, "We can only hope he continued up the pass."
- Elladan says, "<name> you saw that figure earlier too, didn't you?"
- Elladan says, "I'm...I'm not sure what it was. Or who."
- Elladan says, "<name>-- behind us!"
- Elladan says, "Did... did you see that?"
- Elladan says, "Orcs haven't attacked us yet. This can't be their doing, can it?"
- Elladan says, "No, it must be something else..."
- Elladan says, "But what would be the purpose of all this trickery?"
- Elladan says, "Hold a moment, <name>."

- Elladan says, "Are you alright? What happened?"
