Quest Text

Bestowal dialogue Well, <name>, as you can see even from here, there is a large encampment of goblins down there in Gazatmur, off to the north-east a way. We haven't the forces to push them out of there now, but I would like you to get down there and join Wigfast, who has gone to scout the encampment. 'I am sure Wigfast could use help with assessing the situation down there. He is brave for going off to scout, but I do not think he will be of much use by himself.' Background The goblins have established a large encampment in Gazatmur, which worries the dwarves at the Dolven-view. Objective 1 Find Wigfast, the scout at Gazatmur The goblin encampment lies below the Dolven-view at Gazatmur. Good vantage points for scouting can be found to the north and south of the encampment. Slagvi has asked you to scout a large goblin encampment. He warned you to avoid being seen. Slagvi: 'Wigfast is a bold scout, but he will need your aid if he means to come back alive.' Wigfast: 'Ah! Did Slagvi send you? Just in time -- I was about to try to venture in there and start lobbing off goblin-heads all by myself, though I am ill-equipped for such a venture!'
