'Lord Celeborn is making preparations for a great incursion into Mirkwood, not for conquest, but to forestall the attack from Dol Guldur that must surely come. We are gathering supplies and making all things ready for the passage of the Malledhrim, the Golden Host, and the Lord and Lady are carefully selecting those who will lead it.

'One of those I think likely to travel with the Golden Host is named Issuriel; she is a student of history and of the mysteries of the natural world and spoke often with Mithrandir on the rare occasion his business brought him to the Golden Wood. She seeks to know the true nature of things and loves the unravelling of puzzles and secrets above all else.

'Issuriel has been asking for you, ${PLAYER}. She wished to hear the tale of Mazog's capture in the depths of Moria from your lips and had questions to ask of you. Look for her on the high flet atop Cerin Amroth.'
