The object you found while patrolling the Gloomglens intrigued the Ranger Idhrenfair.
'Halflings! Halflings in these hills! It is said that long ago when the hobbits first crossed the Misty Mountains in the east that some of the Stoors settled here in Enedwaith, but it has also long been believed that they were wiped out during the time of the Plague.
'This proves otherwise to me. Will you seek out these hobbits, ${PLAYER}? It may be that in these dark times, they should be encouraged to continue their journey and rejoin their kindred in the Shire. Darkness is quickly falling across this land.
'You might try searching in the west, ${PLAYER}, for that is the direction the first hobbits likely would have taken.'
Hobbits apparently dwell somewhere in the Gloomglens.
Idhrenfair suggested you seek the hobbits in the west, as that is the likely direction the first hobbits would have taken on their journey into Eriador.
