Bestowal

"The death of the Elf Raddir has made uncertain the fate of this journey, Name, for none of the Elves know by which way he planned to bring us in secret to Dol Guldur.

'Speak with the Elves here in the cellar and try to decide on the proper course. Someone must step forward and take charge, or it will be next winter before we advance even a single step...and who knows what will befall Bori in the meantime?'

Background
