Bestowal dialogue

'For my part, I have but one task for you, and it is one of dire importance to my folk, <name>.

'The Men of the Order of the Eye have been searching Dor Amarth and the ruins of Barad-dûr for Sauron's artefacts since His fall, and they have taken careful note of all they have found, as has Mistress Zôreth.

'One of my folk, Sversting, once told me of a rumour shared with him by Mistress Zôreth. She told him that King Greytooth was still held within the deeper dungeons of the Dark Tower, but She would speak no more of it when the rumour spread among us.

'I must know if the Mistress spoke true...does my King still live?

'The Order has sent expeditions all across Dor Amarth -- from the deepest depths of the Black Pits of Mordath to the very gates of Lûghash!

'I would ask that you seek out their leaders, and see if they bear any missives or orders that speak of King Greytooth! [Dwarf: Will you do this for me? Will you do this for us, <name>?]'

Background

The Order of the Eye has sent many of its followers into Dor Amarth hoping to uncover the resting places of Sauron's most powerful artefacts.

Objective 1

Order of the Eye expedition-leaders can be found patrolling outside Lûghash, upon the broken plains of Dor Amarth, and among the ruins of Barad-dûr that have sunken into the Mordath.

Spakorth has asked you to retrieve missives from the Order of the Eye expedition-leaders searching the lands of Dor Amarth. Spakorth hopes they might reveal the whereabouts of the lost King of the Stout-axes.

Your mighty blow defeated the Lûghash Expedition-leader.
Your mighty blow defeated the Dor Amarth Expedition-leader.
Your mighty blow defeated the Mordath Expedition-leader.
You wrest a piece of parchment from the fallen expedition-leader...

Objective 2

  • Read the Order of the Eye missives

You have gathered three missives from the Order of the Eye and should now read them.

This missive warns of Mistress Zôreth's motivations and her attempts to free a dwarf-king from Barad-dûr...
This missive details rumours concerning the fates of the Rings borne by the Nazgûl...
This missive details artefacts rumoured to be held in a secret vault within the Black Pits of Mordath...

Objective 3

  • Deliver the missives to Spakorth in Lûghash

Spakorth can be found at the Stout-axe barracks on the central level of Lûghash.

You have discovered the location of the King of the Stout-axes by reading the missives and should now deliver them to Spakorth.

Spakorth: 'King Greytooth lives? Seventy-eight years he has been gone... and for seventy-eight years we have known what it is to be slaves. Perhaps those days shall soon be behind us!
'Mistress Zôreth claimed he was still imprisoned by Sauron after all these years, but one detail in this missive has left me uneasy. You see, my folk have never been sent to seek him. I...I cannot recall a single expedition to rescue him from the Dark Tower. What attempts to free him could this missive speak of?
'That is a question I shall have to ask the Mistress, I think. Where her efforts failed, we must now succeed.
'It is time King Greytooth is freed from Barad-dûr and returns to his folk!'
