    Wandering Shade
    Northern Barrow-downs

Bestowal

'In the south he rose
from an earthen grave.
Once flesh amd whole
now bones, depraved,
by spirits seeking a home.

'A man of Bone
slept 'neath Cardolan stone.
Rising once, struck low,
by oathed brother
now sundered twain.

'Brothers, cursed,
return again
to the face this foe
from whom they stole.
For deeds most noble
in intent.

'Whilst evil walks
so too will we.

'Seek you he,
beyond the border
south towards stone
the land of Cardolan
his bones there still roam.'

Background

A shade found wandering in the Barrow-downs -- meaning no ill, it seems -- felt the pull of its brother and struggles to appease whatever force has returned to awaken them.

Objectives

Objective 1
Defeat the Bone Man
The shade does not know precisely where the Bone Man may be found, other than that he lies somewhere in the south Barrow-downs.

The shade spoke of a man of Cardolan returned to life and the oath of he and his brother.

Objective 2
Talk to the Wandering Shade

The shade wanders through the northern Barrow-downs.

You should return to the shade and let him know that the Bone Man has been defeated and the shades freed.

Notes

The Bone Man can be found at 35.5S, 53.9W, in the riuns in the south of the Southern Barrow-downs. He is a level 21 signature but he can be solo'd at 20 (depending on class, of course). DON'T PANIC when you kill him! He bursts into a dozen shades that all cry "Free at last!" and they float away. They do not attack you.
