'What an excellent find, Name. These folk from Angmar sound like evil foes, but at least we know what we are up against....

'The plans also show a map that points to the Old East Path, which is just near here. We all avoid that path save for Atli Spider-bane, a visitor from east of the Misty Mountains.

'Speak with Atli and learn what he can tell you about the path. We can use the path to our advantage if we manage to successfully scout it.'

Background

The Blackwold-plans you collected reveal that the brigands, guided by the evil forces of Angmar, mean to attack under the cover of shadow by the Old East Path, which is overrun by spiders.

  • Talk to Atli Spider-bane about the Old East Path
  • Atli Spider-bane stands outside the Hunter's Lodge.

    This brigand scout met his doom at the dead end on the Old East Path

    Objective 2

  • Defeat spiders on the Old East Path (0/4)
  • See if the wall is still intact
  • The Old East Path cuts into the large hill west of the Hunting Lodge.

    Objective 3

     

  • Return to Jon Brackenbrook with the hopeful news
  • Jon Brackenbrook is at the Hunter's Lodge in the north-east corner of Archet.

    You should tell Jon Brackenbrook of the dead end and the slaughtered Blackwold scout at the end of the Old East Path.
