The Elves of the Golden Host discovered a second enemy encampment on the western edge of the Dourstocks, but something seems to be wrong.
'${PLAYER}, as we expected, we found another enemy encampment here in the Dourstocks; however, something seems to be terribly wrong. There are not enough goblins and Orcs in Burgûl-stazg to mount any kind of counterattack against Echad Sirion, and more goblins are deserting everyday.
'Perhaps you could go out into the Dourstocks between here and Burgûl-stazg and see if you can find any of the deserters. You might be able to learn what has them so terrified.
'When you learn something, return to me.'
Goblin-deserters can be found in the Dourstocks, between Echad Mothelen and Burgûl-stazg, to the north-west.
Mothelen has asked you to hunt down some of the goblin-deserters and discover what has terrified them.
Mothelen is at Echad Mothelen in the western Dourstocks, south-east of Burgûl-stazg.
You should return to Mothelen with the information you have gathered.
