'Now you must return to Imlad Lalaith and tell Braiglinn that we have seized our fist foothold across the river. It is time for the second party to cross, for it is they who hold the stealthy undertaking of bringing Mazog to Dol Guldur in trade for the dwarf-prisoners. The launch-officer, Calengoth, near the boats, will ferry you back to Lothlorien.

'I will see to the rest of the preparations necessary for Echad Sirion to serve as the camp for our first excursions into Mirkwood.'
