'One of my scouts managed to return on his own, ${PLAYER}, and he brings important tidings. The evening before last he found himself tracking an unusually large and cunning barghest -- he believes the creature may have been stalking little Hal Tiller at the time -- but he lost the trail when he was himself ambushed and injured.

'This creature -- named Trapjaw by the local folk -- evidently cornered and killed Hal a short while after. Now all that is left to us is to avenge the hobbit and destroy this monster before any more fall to it!

'My scout tells me that Trapjaw has a lair out among the Scuttledells, a distance north of here. Find him and slay him, ${PLAYER}, in the name of Hal Tiller.'

Ivorel is at her camp in the Scuttledells, a distance south of Trapjaw's lair.

You should speak with Ivorel and tell her that Trapjaw has been slain and that Hal Tiller is alive.
