Bob's daughter, Lalia, has gone missing. Bob fearing she may have gone off in search of the \qLast Prince,\q a character in one of the tales Barliman Butterbur tells to travellers, joined a foray into the Barrow-downs to find his daughter.
'I came here to find my missing daughter, Lalia. I'm terribly worried about her. You see, she'd been going on about \qThe Last Prince,\q one of Mr. Butterbur's tales. It's one of his better ones, that's for sure, but I'd say the tale isn't quite the truth of it.
'Lalia has been going on for a long while, I fear she came here to the Barrow-downs in search of this \qprince\q of hers. I came here in search of my daughter, and I am now lost myself.
'In the tale, the Last Prince's barrow is between the Northern Barrow and the Dead Spire, by a large stone. If I could, I would start searching there.'
According to Butterbur's tale, the Barrow of the Last Prince lies between Northern Barrow and the Dead Spire, near a large standing stone.
Bob has asked you to search the Barrow-downs for his missing daughter, who likely has come here in search of the fabled \qLast Prince.\q
