Quest Text

Bestowal dialogue 'Hello there, <name>. It is good to speak with you again; however, the circumstances could be better. Though Éomer has been freed already, word has not made its way to the Eastfold, where he is Reeve. The people, I am sure, would be pleased to hear it, and the news could bolster their spirits. 'Ride to the former capital of Rohan, Aldburg, and give the people there the news. While you are there, be sure to lend a hand...I fear that the Eastfold will be vulnerable with most of their men heading west. Be wary, though...the road to Aldburg may be dangerous in these days.' Background Éomer has been released from the prison at Edoras, where he had been unjustly sent by Gríma Wormtongue. Objective 1 Look for danger along the road to Aldburg Aldburg is south-east of Edoras, nestled near the White Mountains. Follow the road that leads to Aldburg and keep an eye out for danger. An overturned supply waggon lies next to the road. Assess the damage done Objective 2 Keep an eye out for additional danger along the road to Aldburg Aldburg is south-east of Edoras, nestled near the White Mountains. Continue to follow the road that leads to Aldburg and keep an eye out for danger. Another overturned supply waggon lies next to the road. Assess the damage done Objective 3 Travel to Aldburg Aldburg is south-east of Edoras, nestled near the White Mountains. Gandalf ask you to head to Aldburg and deliver the news of Éomer's release and the march upon Isengard. Travelled to Aldburg Objective 4 Talk to Éothain Éothain is at Aldburg in the Eastfold. You should seek out and speak with Éomer's cousin, Éothain. Éothain: 'Éomer has been freed? He never should have been held captive in the first place, but I will not speak ill of Théoden King. 'You say that you were attacked by Orcs unknown to you upon your journey here? I was recently following a party of White Hand Orcs, but you are certain these were not the same? My cousin Éomer and I have had many encounters with Saruman's Orcs, and I fear that they may attack us here in Aldburg. 'We will be watchful, but you should go speak with Arcil. He is a stout warrior, but as a Reeve...well, my cousin he surely is not.' Objective 5 Talk to Arcil Arcil can be found in the Mead Hall of Aldburg. Éothain recommended that you seek out the Thane, Arcil, who has been regent of Aldburg in Éomer's absence. Arcil: 'You say that Éomer has been freed? This is surely wonderful news. However, while I am thankful to hear of this, we have pressing matters to attend here in Aldburg. 'These Orc-attacks should not be taken lightly, but with our depleted numbers, we must bolster our defences.'
