Background
In the heart of the Old Forest, a fell sword calls forth evil spirits from the Barrow-downs. Only by destroying the sword can you stop the wood-trolls' blight from spreading and end the forest's misery.
Objective 1
The wood-trolls are corrupting the forest.
You should defeat their leader, Gulmúk Dampmould.
- Marigold Boffin says, "Everything looks so... twisted. Like the forest itself is angry."
- Marigold Boffin says, "The sword can't be too far from here."
- Gulmúk Dampmould shouts, "Pesky vermin... these woods are ours!"
- Gulmúk Dampmould shouts, "You cannot stop the march of Angmar. Thadúr will see it done!"
- Gulmúk Dampmould says, "Fall before us!"
- Gulmúk Dampmould says, "Witness our might!"
- Gulmúk Dampmould says, "Our corruption runs deep!"
- Gulmúk Dampmould shouts, "But... Thadúr... promised...."
Objective
Though the wood-trolls have lost their leader, fell spirits continue to flock to the Old Forest.
You should destroy the sword that has been summoning the spirits.
- Marigold Boffin says, "There's Old Man Willow. And... you see that? A sword!"
- Marigold Boffin says, "I don't like the look of that sword one bit! And I don't think we ought to touch it, either!"
- Marigold Boffin says, "But if we strike it with everything we've got, even iron has to break."
- Tom Bombadil says, "Hey dol! Merry dol!"
- Marigold Boffin shouts, "Isn't that --"
- Tom Bombadil says, "Old grey Willow-man, mind you your mischief! Go now back to sleep, and don't be a-waking!"
- Tom Bombadil says, "Ha! Ha! Thorn or sword -- Tom sees no difference!"
- Marigold Boffin says, "Hm. I learn something new about my friend Tom every day!"
- Marigold Boffin says, "Well, never mind. It's time we went home and gave the Bounders good news."
