'Greetings, ${PLAYER}. I fear that the next several days' duties are likely to be dangerous indeed. The might of the Enemy is gathering on the heights above us around Dol Guldur, and if we are unable to break their forces swiftly, all of Lothlórien may be in danger.

'I am in charge of the defence of the main encampment here at Ost Galadh, a challenge made doubly difficult by the accursed fog that seems to shroud most of this forest -- even Elven eyes cannot see far through these cloaking mists, which are likely some contrivance of the Enemy against us.

'My guards have caught some hint of goblin-activity in the forests east and north of here, however. No great force, but furtive spies most likely attempting to gauge our strength. I do not think it will be easy, but if you could hunt down a few of their number then perhaps the remainder will fly back to Gathbúrz from whence they descended.'

Lomdognir is at Ost Galadh.

You should return to Lomgodnir with news of your success.
