A Test of Desolation

After acquiring the sample of trollstrife, Mílgamel is curious to learn of the state of the water and soil in the Wastes, as well as that of any plants that still cling to life.

Description
Stage 1
Stage 2

'While I work with the trollstrife you recovered for me, I would have you explore the Wastes further.

'It is plain to see that these lands have laid barren for many long years, but even among this desolation I have seen the trunks of trees and felt the soft crack of mushroom caps under my feet as we travelled to Haerondir.

'Search the lands surrounding Haerondir for samples of soil and mushrooms if you would.

'If I have need of the good, I shall also have need of the very worst the Wastes has to offer us... so collect a small phial of water from the run-off surrounding the Slag-hills to the east.

'Hurry now, ${PLAYER}. I would prefer my research to be finished before the battle is joined!'

Soil and mushrooms can be found somewhere within the southern reaches of the Dead Marshes or upon the battle plain. The Slag-hills can be found due east of Haerondir.

Mílgamel has asked you to seek samples of mushrooms, soil, and the brackish waters of the Slag-hills. You should obtain these samples and then return to her.
