'Hail, ${PLAYER}. Léoflad and my people have set off to Aldburg, and my hope is that they shall arrive having encountered nary a trouble.

'Their safety weighs heavily upon me, friend. I have held the Wade for years, and I would not have sent them away, if I saw not the danger approaching from all sides. Yet, I wish Théoden had done more to aid us....he could have secured Kingstead before leaving us to fend for ourselves among so many foes. As it stands, he has left his niece to handle his affairs here, but I think her no more likely to lead than him, even spared the venomous whisperings of Wormtongue.

'This, of course, brings me to you. You have come into our lands and aided my people well. There are many matters to attend to in Entwade, and all of them of dire importance. Without a concerted effort, there can be no way to address them all before time runs out.'

Thane Edric can be found in the Mead Hall of Entwade in eastern Kingstead.

You have aided Thane Edric's men greatly in preparing the town and eliminating the Enemy's nearest forces.
