'Desperate for wood to use for spears and other implements, the forces of Dol Guldur have begun to fell trees and gather wood in the Ashenslades. The Orcs believe the wood, when used for weapons, may spread the blight that has affected the trees in the region.

'Will you travel to Ânghum-maudhûl and destroy the Orcs' wood stockpiles? While there is no way to tell whether their hopes may prove true or not, there is no doubt such weapons would bring illness with them.

'Ânghum-maudhûl is located on the southernmost border of the Ashenslades. Follow the central road south-east across the Ashendslades.'

Harchador is at Mithechad, north-west of Ânghum-maudhûl.

You should speak with Harchador and let him know that the Orcs' blighted wood stockpiles have been destroyed.
