Bestowal

'I have been watching the robbers as they have moved about the hills above us. They seem to focus on two primary ruins, Tham Sarch and Tham Laegamon. I know from my days as a child playing in those hills of a third ruin:
Arthobel.

'The tower that stands there would make for a very strategic position. You could clearly see over the Way of Kings below you, watch the waters of the Baranduin to the south-east, and on a clear day, see Tinnudir.

'Last I remember, the heavy doors to that place were sealed tight, and none had been within in many years. I ask you to venture to the south-west, up into the hills, to the entrance and look around to see if you notice any recent activity there.'

Background

Arthobel sits high upon the hills above the Way of Kings. Were the robbers to find their way in, it would provide a very strategic viewpoint.
