Description
Stage 1

'With my uncle Théoden bringing the war to Saruman, there remain a great many things to do in the Westemnet.

'To the east, the river-fort of Entwade lies along the Entwash's shores, and has held the Wade for years innumerable. Thane Edric commands the post and holds but a few men in his service. The White Hand has pressed into the King's lands as of late, and the cost of losing the Wade would be unknowable.

'I have many matters to attend to in my uncle's stead, but I know this is a task for which your skills are suited. If you would aid me, I will have your steed readied for the journey at once.'

Note: When you accept this quest, you will immediately travel to Entwade in Kingstead.

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

Éowyn has asked you to travel to Entwade to assist Thane Edric in securing the Wade as his people evacuate to a more defensible shelter.
