'I see...so you were sent by a dwarf from the Blue Mountains, did you? Perhaps it is the long years alone here, but I believe you. Now, allow me to tell you a tale.
'Long ago, the first Halmur Stoneshaper, son of Vithurr, was charged with guarding the treasures here. He stood sentry day and night, maintaining his post even on days of feasting. Yet, he let his guard drop but once, and a vile dwarf, Hjortur Dourhand, slipped in and stole a single ingot of dwarf-gold. Having failed in his duty, Halmur swore that he and his sons would keep vigil over the remaining gold until that ingot was returned. I am but one in a long line of Halmurs who have kept his oath.
'If you return the stolen ingot, the oath will be fulfilled. The strongbox will then be yours to return to the dwarf who sent you. I cannot say, though, where to find Hjortur, although the legends of Halmur's failure tells that Hjortur fled with his gold to Orod Laden. Perhaps there you will be able to find the gold.'
Background
Halmur Stoneshaper is waiting for you to return with the stolen dwarf-gold ingot you retrieved from the descendant of the thief who stole it long ages ago.

Notes

He's a 43 Elite and they are all Elite 43/44 mobs on the way and one Master Elite near him. Good luck. Bring friends.
While he may have been an elite NPC. He is now a signature NPC. The giants and trolls that are near him are Elite. The giants and trolls can be avoided if you are careful and patient.
