'I fear that a few of our number have been captured by the Orcs, pathfinders who came across the river in silence before our attack to mark the landing spots and eliminate the Enemy's sentries.

'Most of them have returned since we began our assault in earnest, but a few have not, nor have we seen any sign of their bodies, which the Orcs would have left to rot had they been slain. Thus I must believe that they yet live and are held captive nearby...most likely in the central fortification upon Amon Angened, as they have not had time to move prisoners to Dol Guldur.

'However, once we assault that fortress in earnest, they would most certainly kill any prisoners held there. If you could manage to get them out before then, the Malledhrim would be in your debt.'
