Bestowal

'You knew the Grey Pilgrim, Bludless, did you not? He was known by many names, travelling to and fro as he did, but to us in Lórien he was called Mithrandir. News came lately that he had fallen in the shadows of Moria; his travels now are ended.

'These three behind me sing now a lament for him, but the words cannot fully express the sorrow that descends even into Lórien at his passing. We will need time to mourn, but there is little time left to us in this Middle-earth. We will take our grief across the Sea.

'If you have words of comfort, save them for Losdirith, who watches the gate to the garden of Lady Galadriel. He has taken the fall of Mithrandir very much to heart, and I have heard that his grief has made him act strangely. Follow the path south to speak with Losdirith.'

Background

Gandalf the Grey fell in Moria, and his loss has been felt by many of the Elves he once knew.

Objectives

Objective 1

  • Talk to Losdirith at the gate of Galadriel's Garden
  • Losdirith watches the gate to the garden of Lady Galadriel, south along the path from the pavilion where Demlindeth sings songs of mourning.

    Demlindeth has asked you to speak words of comfort to Losdirith, who has been acting strangely in the wake of Mithrandir's passing.

    Objective 2

  • Travel to Telain Neduil and find the flet where the canopy of leaves intrudes on the platform
  • Telain Neduil consists of a series of flets north-west of Galadriel's Garden in Caras Galadhon, and the leaves grow over the edge of one of its flets.

    Losdirith wants you to stand at the place he saw in his dream, within the canopy of leaves that cover part of a flet in Telain Neduil, and to look for Gandalf.

    Objective 3

  • Talk to Losdirith at the gate to Galadriel's Garden
  • Losdirith is outside the entrance to Galadriel's Garden.

    Losdirith will want to hear what you saw when you looked through the canopy of leaves at Telain Neduil, even if it is not what he hoped.

    Notes

    The location is [14.4S 66.7W], right by the top of a ladder from the ground. Just step into the leaves, then /look.
