There is a bounty out for the skulls of the wights which wander the southern Barrow-downs.
'It is not usual that we are in such a position. We have come here before with no danger present save the rats, crawlers, or the occasional barghest. This, however, is most peculiar.
'I am certain that the people of Bree-land can benefit from the removal of these terrifying foes, these wights, so I will offer you something of a bounty for their defeat.
'Defeat the walking dead here and return their skulls to me. I will reward you well for these endeavours.'
Wights can be found throughout the southern Barrow-downs.
The guide, Edith Sweetrose, prizes wight-skulls and will pay you for them. She is camped at the Dead Man's Perch, where the northern Barrow-downs meet the southern Barrow-downs.
NOTE: Bounty quests are repeatable quests, but have a finite number of completions. This quest can be completed three times.
