'I'm glad you're here to help! I was just bringing my waggon back from Bree, loaded down with a big bag of mushrooms, and suddenly my cart was boiling over with spiders! I've never seen such spiders before... all I can think is that I picked up their eggs with my mushrooms.

'I need what trade goods still remain from my waggon. Please, it's just off the road to the north-east, right next to the falls. There must be spiders all over the place up there, so it may be dangerous!

'Those mushrooms are my livelihood. If you could bring them back to me, I would be most grateful!'
