Bestowal

'Rumour of Avorthal's capture has come to me. Mathi's fears have merit. The Elves of Duillond remember the treachery of Skorgrim Dourhand six-hundred years ago and do not easily recognize the difference between dwarves. The short reign of Thrain and his son Thorin in Ered Luin was marked by a grudging peace only because their folk kept to themselves and did not trouble the Elves.

'Very well. I will help you to rescue Avorthal and hopefully avert a war. In these darkening times, strife between the enemies of Mordor can only serve to aid the Dark Lord.

'This rescue will not be easy. Return to me when you are ready to depart for the Dourhand camp.'
