Bestowal

'I am in desperate need of your help! Look... look what I found stuck in my door this morning!

'Look at this! It's such a strange arrow. The head is certainly of hobbit-make, although very, very old. The arrow's shaft though bears a resemblance to those made by Big Folk. Why would someone do this? What does this mean?

'It looks like the arrow came from somewhere directly north of here, near the hedge-gate leading to the Greenfields. I'm too frightened to go over there -- who knows what is lurking there -- but could you go there for me and see what you can find?'

Background

When Wilimar Bolger woke up this morning, he found a threatening arrow stuck in the door of his home. The arrow's head was of hobbit-make, although very old, while the shaft looked like it was made by Men.

Objectives

Objective 1

Search north of Wilimar Bolger's home


The arrow came from the area near the hedge-gate that leads to the Greenfields, north of Wilimar Bolger's home.

Wilimar Bolger has asked you to search the place where he thinks the arrow came from, in hopes of finding some sign of the person who loosed it and what it might mean.

Objective 2

Bring the journal to Wilimar Bolger

Wilimar Bolger can be found near his hole on the north-west side of Budgeford.

Notes

On the way out of town you'll come to a wall with an arched opening, look to the right along the south side of the wall, to a tree. There is a backpack, a journal, and a bow. When you get the message that you found it the journal will start blinking, and not before. Gather the journal, then return it to Wilimar Bolger.
