Spalvi has become increasingly nervous about something, and does not seem to be his usual self. What has upset him?
'Can I ask you something, ${PLAYER}? Have you seen Willem Whisker anywhere? I know that he does not trust me very much, but I think in a pinch he might be useful to have around, and I would feel better if his teeth and his claws were close at hand... just in case.'
Spalvi looks around nervously.
'Do you remember the path we used to enter Eregion from the Trollshaws? Do you think you could walk back to that path and see if Willem is there, or if anything suspicious is afoot? Leave Gwingris to the south-east and the road will turn north. Do not go too far! I would appreciate having your eyes on that path, that is all.'
Spalvi is feeling nervous about something, and wanted you to check the road you took from the Trollshaws to Eregion for suspicious signs. The road leaves Gwingris to the south-east before turning north and proceeding into the Trollshaws.
An axe is embedded in a tree by the side of the road that leads from Eregion to the Trollshaws.
Spalvi is in the ruins of Gwingris, in north-west Eregion.
You found an axe embedded in a tree not far from Gwingris, and should bring it to Spalvi.
The Hollin Ridge is to the south-east of Gwingris.
Spalvi has asked that you travel with him to the Hollin Ridge, from where you will have a good view of the surrounding lands and should be able to see any Dourhands approaching your position.
Spalvi has asked you to stand near him and look into the distance from the Hollin Ridge to see if you spy any of the Dourhands that pursue you.
Spalvi is waiting to speak with you before you travel to the Redhorn Pass in search of cave entrances that might bring you closer to Bingo.
Theodore Gorse is at the ruins of Gwingris, in Eregion.
Spalvi has given you the Rothstone to give to Theodore Gorse, since he has no more loyalty to the Dourhands and does not care to keep their treasure.
Haley Meadowsweet is at the ruins of Gwingris, in Eregion.
Convinced that it was a fake and had no value, Theodore did not wish to take the Rothstone. Perhaps Haley Meadowsweet will feel differently.
