'There are many creatures in Angmar that carry venom or poisonous blood in their veins. But even so, how could all the water be affected so? Could something have spawned in the bowels of Carn Dûm? Something monstrous and poisonous to all life?

'This is more than I know of the ways of the water and such. Please, go and speak with Fimreg in Gath Forthnír. She may know more about the evils that could do such things. It is far beyond my meagre skills.

'You will find Fimreg to the north and east of here among the Rangers.'

Urugarth is to the west of Gath Forthnír and north of Imlad Balchorth.

Fimreg believes that a large creature of some kind is poisoning the waters. If such a beast exists, proof of it will be found upstream in Urugarth.
