Bestowal Dialogue

'Ah Hermáth. Is something on your mind?

'Shall I remind you of the tale of Nafni the Unslain?'

Dáin clears his thorat and begins his story once again.

'In the year 19801 of the Third Age, Durin's Bane was unearthed in the Foundation of Stone. Nafni was there on that day, protecting Durin VI while the king treated his Elf-guests to a tour of Khazad-dûm's splendid mines. Durin fell to the Balrog's fury, but he ordered Nafni to survive and protect his son, Náin. And so he did, for Nafni was fleet of foot and was able to escape the terrible creature! He saw that fiend in all of its fiery terror... and lived. Upon hearing Nafni's recounting, Náin was enraged, and vowed revenge for his father at all costs.

'The brave soldiers of Khazad-dûm tried to push the Balrog and the Nameless horde in its train back to the depths, but slowly, more and more of the kingdom was to fall. A year later, Durin's son, now King Náin I, gathered his forces and launched one final, desperate attack against the Balrog, slayer of his father and target of his vengeance...'

Objective 2

  • Talk to Dáin at Amdân

Dáin can be found at Amdân.

You should talk to Dáin.

Dáin: 'Dáin continues the story of Nafni, now near its ending.
'And so Khazad-dûm was abandoned. Thráin I became king, barely older than I am now, and eventually he led our people to Erebor. Nafni earned his title "The Unslain" for surviving his second encounter with the Balrog, and he would become a wise advisor and trusted friend to King Thráin. He was a great and noble dwarf of Durin's Folk.

Dáin appears even more pleased with his most recent recounting of the tale of Nafni the Unslain.

'Khazad-dûm may have been abandoned, but the spirit of Durin's Folk has never dimmed.
