The Burning Island

Many strange creatures have begun to appear in Evendim, not least of which are the fearsome salamanders.

Description
Stage 1

'Have you seen the creatures called salamanders? They are rather akin to worms, but seem to me to be an entirely new breed of creature. We have not seen them in Evendim until recently, when Tyl Ruinen, the island on the west side of the lake, became infested with the creatures. At night, the island seems to be burning with the flames of these strange beasts.

'A number of salamanders have also been seen in the Barandalf, south and east of Tinnudir -- could it be that the creatures are spreading? Venture to Tyl Ruinen, if you are willing, and discover the source of this plague of salamanders.

'There is a ruin in the centre of the island called Tollobel. Perhaps some clue to the origin of the salamanders may be found there.'

The island of Tyl Ruinen on the west side of the lake, opposite Tinnudir, has become infested with salamanders.

Calatherdir has asked you to make the journey to Tyl Ruinen and the ruin of Tollobel to investigate the salamanders that have appeared there.
