'This is a family matter that I do not wish to involve others in, but I cannot bring myself to tell Meregyth what I have long known.

'Now that Éomer is heir to the throne of Rohan, he is to marry a lady of much higher station, not the daughter of a marsh-lord.

'If you could talk with her, it would remove a burden from my heart. Pick an arrangement of arrowhead, a flower which grows around Fenmarch, and deliver it to her along with my message.'

Arrowhead grows in Fenmarch, east of Aldburg.

Thane Sparhafoc has asked you to deliver a message to his daughter Meregyth, but he first wants you to collect an arrangement of arrowhead to help soften the disappointment she is certain to feel.

Objectives

Collect arrowheads (0/5)

Meregyth will most likely be found just west of the Mead Hall in Fenmarch.

You have gathered an impressive bouquet of Arrowhead to give to Meregyth. Now you must deliver it and Thane Sparhafoc's message.

Objectives

Find Meregyth

Meregyth can be found on a dock west of the Fenmarch Mead Hall.

Deliver the arrowhead-arrangement and the message from her father, Thane Sparhafoc, regarding the unlikelihood that Éomer will still wed her now that he is heir to the throne of Rohan.

Objectives

Talk to Meregyth

Thane Sparhafoc is in the Fenmarch Mead Hall.

After receiving her father's distressing news, a devastated Meregyth ran off. You should inform Thane Sparhafoc that you have delivered the unfortunate tidings.
