Crystals have been discovered in Moria, bearing marks of the Forgotten Treasury, a sealed vault hiding a substantial amount of wealth. This discovery has piqued the interest of some dwarves who now wish to uncover the vault and save its contents from the pilfering Orcs.
'If you are to enter the vault of the Forgotten Treasury, we must prepare you for what you are to face. It is located to the south and east of here, though more southerly than east.
'Between our hold and your destination are many Orcs. These Orcs are likely a smaller, stupider breed than the ones you will encounter inside the Treasury, for it would take cunning enemies to enter such a protected place.
'It would do you well to hunt the lesser Orcs for a short while; this will give me time to prepare you for the adventure. Head south-east and south of here and collect a bundle of scraps from these Orcs, then return to me when you have enough.'
The Forgotten Treasury lies to the south and south-east of the Deep Descent.
Falgir has asked that you kill Orcs and goblins between the Deep Descent and Forgotten Treasury to ready yourself for the task of liberating the vault. He also asked you to collect scraps of material from the Orcs and goblins.
