Handaron has told you that Halbarad requires the aid of a band of warriors to help bolster the defence of Trestlebridge against an assault by the Orcs.
'I have received urgent messages from Trestlebridge -- it seems that the town has again come under attack by the vicious Ongbúrz Orcs and needs reinforcement swiftly, lest it fall into the hands of the Enemy.
'That town remains the linch-pin of our defence of Bree-land beyond -- should the Orcs break through in great numbers, it will not be in our power to keep them at bay any longer, and matters will become dark indeed.
'So gather your allies quickly and then go to Halbarad, who will organize your place in the defence.'
Halbarad is at Esteldín in the North Downs.
Handarod has asked you to speak with Halbarad and lend him your aid in defending Trestlebridge. The townsfolk will not be able to defend against the Orcs alone. Handarod suggested that you take allies with you.
