Guides out of Bree-town hope that their allies and more of the folk who paid them to investigate the Barrow-downs survived and made it to a safe location in the south Barrow-downs.
'Our forces were split when we entered the Barrow-downs and were set upon by wights, barghests, and all other manner of fell creature here. Some followed myself, while the others headed south.
'There is a place where the hill rises high and separates the southern Barrow-downs from the northern Barrow-downs. It is called Dead Man's Perch, and I pray that the name does not hold true.
'It overlooks southern Bree and is a flat area that we have oft camped at, if necessary. I pray you find the others there.'
Dead Man's Perch lies between the northern and southern Barrow-downs.
Sal Haywood asked you to search the Dead Man's Perch for the other guides out of Bree.
