'We rune-keepers are not a vain lot, ${PLAYER}. You and I both know that knowledge is a treasure of the mind, not of our garments. Still, it is also true that others do not give us our due respect if we do not garb ourselves as they wish to see us. Such is the way of the unenlightened.

'First, I will need the vines that grow through the hides of the creatures which lurk in Glâd Ereg in Eregion and the hide of the cold-worm Helchuan, who dwells in Forochel. May your way be a safe one, ${PLAYER}.'
