"As I began my search for Radagast, near the Midgewater Pass, I witnesses an Orc-messenger depart in great haste. Quickly, I followed, trailing him eastward along the shoulder of the hills and then south, but my search was interrupted. I could follow no further, for foul crebain circled above, and to be discovered would do greater injury to our work here than I can permit.

'Once again, I must call upon your aid. The messenger likely carries with him orders to the outlying camps. If you can intercept the messenger, we may learn the nature of these orders So armed, we will be better equipped to deal with the Orc-threat.

'Search among the camps in Glumhallow, to the west, and return to me with the orders this messenger surely possesses. I will seek sign of Radagast's passage elsewhere.
