'Acca will tell us the location of a secret way out of the Ring, but we will need two things: a way out of these cells and a large enough distraction to keep the Uruk-hai occupied once we reach the surface.

'When Fash took me from my cell to work, I saw some of Saruman's experiments. One of these involved a black powder that, when set aflame, caused a tremendous roar of smoke. Some of the machinery seems to spew this powder. If you can collect enough of it, we could use it for our distraction.

'Your relative freedom of movement can help us here, Name, but you must still keep up appearances. Do not let the Uruk-hai know what you are up to! Report to Sagrurz by the forges and do his work in addition to collecting the powder for me.'
