'This winter has been cruel to my kind, ${PLAYER}. When Núrzum came, many of the Ents remained still in slumber, but those of us that walked among the trees were faced with a great foe of our kind.

'The trees screamed to us for help. I hear their cries still... they did not understand. And Núrzum... we were so few, we could do nothing to stop him. We fled into the forest. All of us, save for Duskleaf. Hom. Such hasty decisions are unbefitting, I think, but he went forth. Núrzum struck him down, but his ending did not come. He fled into the forest and has avoided all of us since.

'I would ask that you try to convince our friend to return. Núrzum must be dealt with in time, and we will need all of our kind to stand against him. If Duskleaf is to be found, I would guess he is near the Enting Hollow, little one.'
