'We are without direction, my friend. The trail is cold, and none that live know of Faramir's fate. Alas for poor Lúmithil... may he be at peace.

'I have thought much on where our search might continue, and one thought has lingered in my mind. You have done much for us, but this may be too perilous a task to put upon you. Since our flight into the culverts, none of us have dared to return to the site where Faramir speared the great fell-beast.

'I thought our course wise, and it may still be, but I must ask you to travel there, my friend. What became of the beast? Did it fall as we thought? Has some hidden insight to our captain's flight gone unnoticed? These thoughts trouble my mind, ${PLAYER}, and I cannot rest.

'If you dare, travel far to the north-east, beyond the Dome of Stars... and search by the broken north-bridge. When you find Faramir's spear, you shall know you have found the site.'

The broken spear can be found near the ruined bridge to the north-east of the Dome of Stars.
