Bestowal Dialogue

It would seem each artifact presents a great challenge for those who seek its destruction. I believe we can assume the third rests somewhere in the Circle of Madness. Lhaereth rules this section of the city, and I do not advise a direction confrontation with her. No, we must instead tread with caution. We must find where the third artifact rests.

Is it true that you have befriended a goblin from Agarnaith, <name>? Perhaps a goblin could sneak into the Circle of Madness and learn things that we could not! I never would have thought that I would ask a goblin for assistance. Would you speak with this Viznak for me?

Background

For those reclaiming Minas Ithil from the grasp of darkness, a trial of madness has begun.

Objective 1

Viznak can be found at Barad Elenath.

You should talk to Viznak.

Viznak: 'I'm still here. Thanks for the greetings! You have crafty task for Viznak? Sure, why not? I don't like the Blight Lady much anyhow. I'll find that shiny for you! You wait here. Be back soon!'

Objective 2

  • Wait for Viznak to return

Viznak can be found at Barad Elenath.

Objective 3

  • Talk to Viznak at Barad Elenath

Viznak can be found at Barad Elenath.

You should talk to Viznak.

Viznak: 'I'm back! Some good to tell and some bad to tell. Which first, good?
'Good is I know where the shiny is! Bad is that it's back in Agarnaith!
'<name>, I want to go home now anyway. Maybe we could go back to Agarnaith together. I'll help you get the shiny you want too! What do you say?'

Objective 4

Viznak can be found in Agarnaith near Seregost.

You should travel to Agarnaith and talk to Viznak.

Viznak: 'Oh, ho, I'm glad to be home! Viznak needs less excitement and more naps for a while. Maybe then I can be ruler of Agarnaith again! It's my swamp, but you can come and visit!'

Objective 5

  • Talk to Viznak in Agarnaith

Viznak can be found in Agarnaith near Seregost.

You should talk to Viznak.

Viznak can be found in Agarnaith at his hideout.

You should talk to Viznak.

Visnak: '<name>, you live! I was worried. You took a long time to leave Seregost and you spent all of it swinging at things that weren't there and yelling at things that weren't there. Then you collapsed and I had to drag you all the way here! I really need a nap now!'
You assure Visnak that you are well enough to continue your journey and do not need to be dragged all the way back to Minas Morgul.
'Good! Oh, I guess this is where we part ways. Thanks for coming back to my home with me. Makes coming home not so lonely. Bye bye now!'

Thurindol: '<name>, you have returned. Was Viznak able to assist you in locating the third artifact?
