Bestowal

'PLAYER, the opportunity to cripple the Orcs in Dol Dinen has finally presented itself. We are certain that there are two generals, Uruks of Angmar, who lead the Orc-horde which came down out of Ram Duath, but until now they have been hidden from us. One of the Uruks has been seen in Dol Dinen!

'We still cannot risk exposing Esteldin to the Orcs, so we must rely on yourself and others to weaken them. Gather your allies and journey into the heart of the Orc-camp. Search for the general on the hill overlooking the fields and slay him. Bring me back a token of his armour as evidence that you have completed the task.

'Such a blow will certainly cripple the Orc-horde, at least until a replacement can be sent, giving us time to prepare a defence.'

Background

The Rangers of Esteldin believe that the Orc-horde that swept down from Ram Duath is led by two Uruks, one of which has been sighted amidst the army gathered in Dol Dinen.
