'Well met, ${PLAYER}. If Durin's Folk are to ever retake their ancient home of Moria they will need the support of captains like yourself. I can see that you are a captain of no small amount of experience. If you would like to contribute further to the campaign here, I would ask of you a series of challenges.

'There is an Orc not far from here, in the north-western region of the Flaming Deeps. He is responsible for the deaths of more dwarves than any other single Orc I know of in this place.

'If you are up to it, your first task is to hunt down and kill this Orc, who calls himself Pukhal. Head south and then west from here into the Flaming Deeps and deal with Pukhal. Return to me if you succeed in this task.'

Garnyd is at Anazârmekhem, in the northern reaches of the Flaming Deeps.

You should return to Garnyd with news of your success.
