'I believe there may be hope for the sick dwarves, Name. When poisons seep into the land, oftentimes the land will strive to heal itself, much as our wn bodies fight infection. If you explore inside the mountain, you might find just such an event.

'I believe that medicinal plants grow inside, and those will help to cure the dwarves. But the source of the poison itself is yet to be discovered...though I have my suspicions.

I feel a powerful chill when I stand near this entrance to the mountain. I will stand guard here while you explore the cave.

Background

Elrohir has asked you to seek an herb within the caves of the Mirkstone Tunnels, as he believes the mountain will try in its own way to purge itself of the encroaching poisons.

Objectives

Objective 1

  • Collect healing herbs from the Mirkstone Tunnels (0/5)
  • It is possible that healing may be found inside the cave behind Elrohir.

    You should search the cave for that grow to help to purge the poisons from the Mirkstone Tunnels.

    Objective 2

  • Examine the cave fo what might be causing the blight of Ered Luin
  • There is surely a reason for the Dead to have encroached upon these parts, and this cave seems to be the source.

    You should search the cave for the heart of the problems at Thorin's Gate.

    A horrible feeling comes over you -- something approaches!

    Objective 3
  • Bring the healing herbs to Elrohir
  • Elrohir is outside the Mirtkstone Tunnels, guarding the entrance from the bloodthirsty Dourhands.

    You should bring the herbs to Elrohir and tell him what you witnessed inside the caves.
