'Do you think you are ready for a true challenge adventurer? Gortheron the Doom-caller, most powerful and leader of the Gaunt-lords, has come to Enedwaith. He stands now in his fortress, Ost Dunhoth, and plots to claim all of Middle-earth for his Dark Lord.

'I do not know if he can be stopped, but we must do what we can to slow him. I ask that you venture to Ost Dunhoth and slay as many of its denizens as you may. Gortheron is a threat we cannot ignore.'

The Rangers in Thrór's Coomb will be pleased to hear you have culled some of Gortheron's forces.
